Free Christmas Tree Removal Available for Oswego Residents

Groot Industries will collect Christmas trees after the holidays through the second full week of January, through Jan. 17, 2015, the Village of Oswego announced.

Residents are asked to place their bare tree (no lights, ornaments, tinsel or any decorations) by the curb on their normal scheduled garbage day WITHOUT a yard waste sticker and NOT IN A BAG.

After the second full week in January residents will be required to wait until April when the yard waste program starts up again and a sticker will be needed at that time, the village said.
