If you were one of the families who went out and purchased a fresh tree this year for the holiday season, and aren’t quite sure how to dispose of it, there are 9 locations throughout Winnipeg which will take your old tree and recycle them for you.
The Christmas Tree recycling program begins tomorrow, December 30, and runs through to January 20, 2009.
At the beginning of January, you can also pick up some free wood chips from all the recycled trees when you bring in your own container.
