SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- Do you still have your Christmas tree up and decorated? Are you stumped on how you will dispose of it?

Well, Keep North Fulton Beautiful has the answer for you!

The organization will take part in the statewide 25th annual Bring One For The Chipper initiative on Saturday, Jan. 2, 2016.

From 9 a.m to 4 p.m., residents can drop off their trees at two locations:

• The Home Depot at 6400 Peachtree Dunwoody Road; and
• The Sandy Springs Recycling Center at 470 Morgan Falls Road.

Bring One For The Chipper involves hundreds of communities and thousands of volunteers across Georgia. Since its launch, the program has recycled about six million Christmas trees. The mulch from trees has been used for playgrounds, local government beautification projects and individual yards.

A note to residents: please make sure your tree does not contain any ornaments, tinsel, lights and make sure they are not flocked (sprayed with fake snow). 

For additional information, visit the Keep North Fulton Beautiful website or call 770-551-7766.
