Christmas Tree Pickup and Mulching

.

The Bureau of Solid Waste will offer curbside tree collection from Tuesday, January 4, 2011 through Friday, January 28, 2011.  Residents should set out trees on their regularly scheduled trash collection day at the same location where their trash is collected.  All tinsel and ornaments must be removed from trees before they are set out for curbside collection or mulching.

DPW will also provide Christmas tree mulching Monday through Saturday during the entire month of January. Mulching services will be offered from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at BOTH the Sisson Street Citizen Drop-off Center, 2840 Sisson Street, AND the Reedbird Avenue Citizen Drop-off Center, 701 Reedbird Avenue.

Residents may bring their own bags or containers if they wish to collect mulch for their own use. Community groups are also encouraged to bring bags or containers and collect free mulch for neighborhood gardens while supplies last.

For additional information, please call 311.
