 CURBSIDE TREE RECYCLING

 Christmas trees will be collected at curbside beginning Monday, January 2 and continue until January 31, 2012.  Trees need to be bare!  Please remove all ornaments, tinsel, lights and tree stands before placing trees at the curb. Trees MUST be placed on the curb, not in the street and DO NOT place trees inside your trash can. 

 Your tree may be picked up on any of your regular scheduled collection days during the month of January.  The trees will be taken to the landfill for use in the composting program.  This service is provided to residents at NO additional cost.
