Autumn leaves

What to do with Autumn Leaves

It feels a little later than usual but autumn is now in full fall, and those with green fingers will lap up the opportunity to put the leaves to good use by composting them. With around 20,000 trees lining the borough Havering Council is encouraging residents to rake and collect the leaves that drift onto their property and then either compost them, put them in their green bins, or take them to the nearest refuse and recycling centre for composting. If residents aren’t able to dispose of the leaves, the Council offers a service to collect leaves blown in from the street and pick them up.

 

Residents should collect and bag their leaves during the autumn then call 01708 432563 to arrange a collection.
