Recycle your Christmas tree

Start the new year off right by recycling your real Christmas tree. Fir trees are biodegradable, which means they can be reused or recycled for mulch and other purposes. Either place your tree out for collection starting on Wednesday, Jan. 8, where you normally put your trash for collection, or drop it off at the Compost Facility and Convenience Center, 3550 Lawson Road. Call 972-216-6285 for more information.
