New Year decorations taken down and packed away properly. Your house returned to normal, all the festive stuff boxed up neatly for next year.
### January Reality Check
The **festive period is over**, you're back at work, and those decorations are starting to look a bit sad. Tree's shedding needles, lights seem less magical, and you just want your house back to normal.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Taking decorations down properly and storing them well means they'll last years. Shoving them randomly in bin bags means broken ornaments and tangled lights next December.

Good to Know
> 🎄 **Real tree disposal:** Check your council's collection dates for real Christmas trees. Most Devon councils collect them early January. I can drag it to your collection point as part of the service. **Traditional Twelfth Night** (5th January) is when decorations should come down. Some people are superstitious about this. I'm available whenever you want them gone - tradition or practicality, your call. **Outdoor decorations in January** can be wet and muddy. I'll pack them in bin bags until they dry, then you can transfer to proper storage boxes later. **Loft storage** - if your decorations live in the loft, I can get them up there. Older Exeter houses often have awkward loft access - I'll manage it safely. **Multiple years of decorations** piled up? I can help sort through and organise while we're packing. Chuck the broken stuff, consolidate the keepers.
Frequently Asked Questions about New Year decoration removal in Newton Abbot
What does New Year decoration removal include?
I'll take down all your Christmas and New Year decorations - tree, lights, garlands, ornaments, the lot. Pack them carefully in boxes (yours or I can bring storage boxes), and leave your house looking normal again. Back to reality after the festive period.
Can you take down outdoor decorations as well as indoor?
Yes - the whole lot. Outdoor lights from gutters and trees, garden displays, nativity scenes, inflatable snowmen. Everything comes down and gets stored properly so it's ready for next year.
Do you store the decorations or just pack them?
I pack them and leave them wherever you want - loft, garage, shed, under stairs. If you need help actually getting boxes into a high loft, I can do that too. But I'm not taking them to my storage - they stay at your house, just packed away.
How long does taking decorations down take?
Depends on how much you had up. Basic tree and few bits is about an hour. Full house with outdoor lights, multiple rooms, big display can be 3 hours. I'll give you an honest estimate based on what you describe.
What if some decorations are broken or the tree is shedding everywhere?
I'll separate broken bits so you can decide to bin or replace them next year. Real trees that are dropping needles badly, I'll bag them up for your garden waste collection. I'll hoover up the mess before I leave.
