Elsewhere in LA: Recycle Your Xmas Tree This Weekend!

Great information from Blogging.la on recycling your tree. Of course, this would help to prevent my yearly rant about Christmas trees littering every curb from here to San Diego. Is it really that hard to find a recycling place or chop it up and put it in your garden bin. Isn't that the final task of the holiday season.

Every year I find myself wishing I had a chipper/shredder, so I could make use of all the free mulch I could use. Of course, I don't have my pickup anymore, so transporting the trees wouldn't be as easy as before.

Oh, well, if you live in LA, do yourself, and your neighbors, a favor and get thee to a recycling yard.

Recycle Your Xmas Tree This Weekend!

Jillian: If you had the kind of Christmas tree that doesn't get replanted after the holiday, here's your chance to repair your karma! Green LA Girl has linked to a post about how to recycle your Christmas tree in the LA area. And when you bring in your old tree, you get a new one, FREE! (New one is a seedling, which, in a few years, will become a lovely pointy-style Christmas tree)

Dropoff locations are accepting trees today, tomorrow, and next weekend. Also, please remember: it is illegal to leave your tree at your curb, due to fire hazard (this means you, across the street neighbors!!)
