Christmas tree delivery across Cardiff
We deliver across Cardiff and South Wales, free.
That covers the city centre, Cardiff Bay, Roath, Cathays and Canton. Pontcanna, Llandaff and Whitchurch to the north west. Penylan, Cyncoed, Lisvane and Llanishen to the north. Grangetown, Butetown and Splott to the south. Ely, Fairwater and Radyr to the west.
We also deliver to Penarth, Barry, Caerphilly, Newport, Bridgend and Pontypridd, and anywhere else across the CF postcodes.
If your area is not listed, we still deliver. It is still free, and there is no Welsh surcharge.
How delivery works
You choose your delivery date at checkout. We cut and pack your tree the working day before it travels, so it arrives fresh rather than having stood on a lot for weeks.
Deliveries run between 8am and 6pm and you do not need to wait in. If you are out, the courier leaves the tree somewhere safe.
Each tree is netted, then loaded into a heavy-duty tree carrier with a cane inside to hold its shape. Netted, it will get up the stairs of a Victorian terrace in Roath or Canton. Cut the netting in the room where the tree will stand, not in the hall.
We use DX, a national carrier for large goods. They are good, but no carrier is perfect, so we will not promise a date can never slip. If it does, tell us and we will sort it.
Delivery is free. No minimum order, no surcharge.
Which Christmas tree should you choose?
Nordmann Fir
The non-drop tree, and Britain's favourite. Thick, waxy needles that hold their moisture and stay on the branch. Watered, it holds four to five weeks.
Soft, blunt needles for a house with children or a dog, and strong, well-spaced branches that carry heavy baubles without sagging.
It barely smells. That is the trade for keeping the needles off your floor.
Norway Spruce
The traditional tree, and the one that smells of Christmas. Sharp pine scent, classic conical shape, and cheaper because it grows faster.
It drops sooner. Put it up in mid December, water it daily, and keep it off the radiator.
Pot grown trees
Alive, roots and all, at 2ft to 3ft. Right for a flat in the Bay or a small terrace. It goes back outside after Christmas and can come again next year.
What size tree do you need?
Measure the ceiling and take off a foot for the stand and the star.
A Victorian terrace in Roath, Canton or Pontcanna will often have high ceilings and carry a 7ft tree comfortably. A modern flat in Cardiff Bay wants a 6ft, or a 5ft if floor space is tight.
Width is the measurement people forget. A tree is about two thirds as wide as it is tall, so a 6ft tree needs four feet of floor.
Our Christmas tree size guide has the detail.
Recycling your Christmas tree in Cardiff
Cardiff Council collects real Christmas trees in January and chips them for mulch. Check the council website for your collection date or your nearest recycling centre.
It is usually free, so use it before you pay anyone.
South Wales hospice charities also collect trees in January for a donation. Your tree gets recycled and a hospice gets funded. Bookings open in December and go quickly.
Otherwise, add our collection service at checkout. Check the free options first. We would rather tell you that than sell you something you can get for nothing.
More in our Christmas tree recycling guide.
Keeping your tree alive
Saw an inch off the bottom of the trunk before it goes in the stand. Sap seals the cut end within hours of harvest, and without a fresh cut the tree cannot drink at all.
Get it into water straight away and check the water every single day. If it runs dry once, the trunk seals over and the tree stops drinking for good.
Keep it away from radiators. Heat is what kills a Christmas tree, and a cool corner will buy you a fortnight for nothing.
A stand with a deep reservoir makes it easy. More in our guides to keeping your tree fresh and stopping needle drop.
