Bring One for the Chipper
Keep Cobb Beautiful is inviting everyone to "Bring One for the Chipper", and recycle your Christmas tree after the holidays.
As a part of a statewide effort to reuse Christmas trees, Keep Cobb Beautiful is hosting 13 convenient sites at which area residents can drop-off their trees. Keep Marietta Beautiful, Keep Smyrna Beautiful and other affiliates will also sponsor Christmas tree recycling. In appreciation of your recycling efforts, participants will receive a seedling while supplies last.
Most sites will be manned by various volunteer organizations from 9:00am until 4:00pm. Drop off will only be allowed on Jan. 8. No other items will be allowed to be dropped off at sites. Cobb County Parks sites will accept trees from Dec. 26 until Jan. 8. All Home Depot sites will accept trees ONLY on Saturday, January 8. If you have any questions, call Keep Cobb Beautiful.
"Bring One For the Chipper" is sponsored state-wide by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs' Keep Georgia Beautiful program Georgia Power Company, The Home Depot, The Davey Tree Company, Cobb EMC, WXIA-TV, and local Keep America Beautiful affiliates.
Davey Trees at 770-451-7911, as well as the Cobb Parks chipper locations will have free mulch available to citizens after January 9th.
