Recycle Christmas Trees On Jan 6 In Roswell (ICYMI)

ROSWELL, GA — Join the tradition and give a gift to nature this holiday season by taking part in Keep Roswell Beautiful's Christmas tree recycling event. The 27th annual Bring One for the Chipper will be held Saturday, Jan. 6, 2018, at two Home Depot locations in the city.

Roswell residents are invited to drop off trees from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at one of two Home Depot stores:

• 1580 Holcomb Bridge Road in Holcomb Woods Shopping Center
• 870 Woodstock Road across from Publix

Trees will be chipped into mulch and will be available for delivery to the public by Davey Tree. Residents are asked to please not drop off trees prior to Jan. 6.

In appreciation of their recycling efforts, participants will also receive a special gift, while supplies last.
Keep Roswell Beautiful has joined with sponsors The Home Depot, 11 Alive, The Davey Tree Expert Company, and the Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation to sponsor the Bring One for the Chipper program as part of a statewide effort to reuse Christmas trees. Last year, more than 9,000 trees were collected in Roswell.

For more information or to volunteer at the event, please contact Vicki Culbreth at vculbreth@roswellgov.com or 770-641-3742.
