I will be trimming a large leylandii hedge soon.

Can the trimmings be easily composted or is there a better way of disposal
other than sending them to landfill or bonfire?

I shred all my leylandii trimmings up to about 15mm thickness, and
burn the rest indoors. Bag up the shreddings and use them for mulch in
six months. The softer bits soon disappear into the soil, although the
woody bits hang around for a couple of years.
