Keep Cobb Beautiful’s annual Bring One for the Chipper Christmas Tree recycling program starts Christmas Day and ends next Saturday, Jan. 4.
Starting Christmas Day and continuing through Jan. 4, you can drop off trees at the Home Depot stores at Providence Square (4101 Roswell Road) and Highland Plaza (3605 Sandy Plains Road).
On Saturday, Jan. 4, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., the following county parks in East Cobb will serve as drop-off locations:
- Fullers Park (3499 Robinson Road)
- Sewell Park (2055 Lower Roswell Road)
- Noonday Park (489 Hawkins Store Road)
When you bring a tree you’ll get a free sapling, as long as supplies last.
No flocked trees will be accepted, and all trees must have decorations, mesh, lights, stands, strings and other items removed.
Free mulch also is available; for more information, call 770-528-1135 or visit keepcobbbeautiful.org.
An East Cobb boy scout troop is collecting trees this Saturday, Jan. 28, and next Saturday, Jan. 4, as a fundraising project.
It’s Troop 565, which meets at Eastminster Presbyterian Church, and they’ll be making curbside pickups those days starting at 8 a.m. within the Walton, Wheeler, Pope, Lassiter and Sprayberry attendance zones.
The cost for the retrieval is $25 a tree, and they’re asking that you sign up here for the service. The donations are tax-deductible and the proceeds go toward troop programs.
