Recycle Your Christmas Tree In Claremont
After the holidays are over, those Christmas trees become a fire hazard. Here is how to properly recycle your tree.

CLAREMONT, CA — O Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree, it's time to recycle you, you see! Dried out trees are a fire hazard, and it's time to make room for all of your new Christmas haul.
Thanks to the folks at Waste Management, your tree can be picked up curbside. Remember, following the Christmas holiday, Waste Management is on holiday schedule, with your trash pickup the day after your regular pickup day.
Waste Management has stated that they will be picking up Christmas trees from residential customers, curbside, on your service day from December 29 through January 5 & 11. Verify service in your area by visiting their website.
