Community members recycling their Christmas trees in Georgetown, promoting environmental sustainability.
Georgetown residents can take part in a free recycling program for unflocked Christmas trees and organic holiday decorations from December 26 to January 31. The initiative, organized by Texas Disposal Systems, allows residents to drop off their trees at designated locations, promoting environmentally friendly waste disposal. The collected trees will be transformed into organic mulch and compost, further supporting sustainable gardening efforts. For more details on drop-off locations and acceptable items, residents can visit TDS’s website. Let’s work together for a greener community this New Year!
The holidays have come and gone, and now that we are well into January, it’s time to tackle that old Christmas tree! If you’re a Georgetown resident wondering what to do with your unflocked Christmas tree, look no further. Your city is stepping up to help you dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way.
From December 26 through January 31, residents can take advantage of a free recycling program offered by Texas Disposal Systems (TDS). It’s easy! Simply drop off your unflocked Christmas trees and other organic holiday decorations at designated locations around the city. Not only does this help clear your space, but it also supports efforts in composting and sustainable gardening.
Wondering what’s on the acceptance list? TDS is happy to accept:
If your items are natural and organic, they’re most likely good to go! However, do keep in mind that artificial or fake trees cannot be recycled through this initiative.
The main drop-off point is at TDS & Garden-Ville Georgetown, located at 250 W.L. Walden Dr. This is the place where you can bring your organic decorations for recycling during their operating hours:
In addition to the main site, there are five more drop-off locations scattered across the Central Texas region, making it convenient for everyone!
After the trees and organic decor are collected, they will be taken to TDS’ facility where they undergo a transformation into organic mulch and compost. Talk about a fantastic way to give your holiday spirit a second life! These products will be available for purchase at Garden-Ville stores throughout Central Texas, catering to gardening enthusiasts who appreciate sustainable options.
This holiday recycling initiative is a prime example of TDS’s ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability. By recycling and composting, residents are helping to create a greener community, paving the way for better practices in waste management.
If you’re curious to find out more about other drop-off locations or have questions regarding accepted items, it’s simple! Visit TDS’s website or reach out to their customer service. They are more than happy to assist you with any inquiries you may have.
As we leap into a new year, let’s make a collective effort to reduce waste and embrace sustainability in our daily routines. Remember, this initiative runs until January 31, so gather those holiday items and head out to your nearest drop-off location!
