Treecycling

2-TreeIconAfter the holidays, remove all lights, garland, and decorations from your tree. Then set your tree at the curb with your yard trim.

If your tree is greater than 6 feet in length, cut your tree down to a maximum of 4 feet sections prior to collection.  Please no plastic tree bags.

Pumpkins

Don't put your pumpkins out in your yard trim cart at the end of the season. Instead, dispose of them in food waste or backyard composting.
