Safety and care for your beautiful fresh tree
Shake off any loose needles before bringing the tree indoors.
Once inside, stand the tree in a special Christmas tree stand or in a bucket with a water bowl. Add a pint of water to the water bowl and top up daily.
Place the tree in the coolest part of the room making sure it is properly secured and away from doorways, stairs, heaters, radiators and open fires.
Make sure that lights on the Christmas tree or lights used for decoration elsewhere are properly wired and comply with the current EU standards of safety.
Always unplug tree lights and other decorations when leaving the house or going to bed.
After Christmas
Your tree can be recycled free of charge at Gorey Household Recycling Centre, Gorey Business Park, Ramstown, Gorey
