Come on, we know you're thinking about it already!

Christmas and Boxing Day have been celebrated and that Norwegian spruce which is taking up half the room is starting to shed its needles everywhere.

These are the options that Richmond residents have for disposing their Christmas trees.

Richmond Council will collect real trees for free between January 4-15.

All you need to do is leave it at the front of your home with decorations removed on the normal scheduled garden waste collection day for your street. You can find this out on the council website here.

If you really can't wait that long, you can take your Christmas tree to:

• Household Waste and Recycling Centre, Townmead Road, Kew (please remember to book ahead)
• Barn Elms Sports Centre, SW13 0DG (opposite Barnes Rugby Centre)
• Squire's Garden Centre Car Park, Sixth Cross Road, TW2 5PA
• Old Deer Car Park, TW9 2RA
• Ham Street Car Park, TW10 7RS
• Nelson Road Car Park, TW2 7BB
• Hampton Library Car Park, TW12 2AB
• North Lane Car Park, Teddington, TW11 0HJ
