Wrapping up Christmas

We hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Cleaning up after the holidays can feel like a daunting task, but one simple way to start is by recycling your Christmas tree with the "Bring One For The Chipper" program. This free service allows you to drop off your tree at designated locations, where it will be turned into mulch or other environmentally friendly materials.

Find your nearest drop-off location here.
