Montgomery to recycle live Christmas trees

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Montgomery residents can recycle their live Christmas trees this season.

The City of Montgomery, Montgomery Clean City Commission and the Alabama Department of Conservation will accept trees on Saturday, Dec. 29 and Saturday, Jan. 5.

Residents can take discarded Christmas trees to any of the city’s regular Saturday trash drop-off points between 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on those two days. Drop off locations can be found on the city’s website under the Sanitation Department link.

WSFA-TV reports the Alabama Department of Conservation will use the trees to expand the fish habitat program on big, local reservoirs like Lake Martin and Lake Jordan.

For more information, please call the Montgomery Clean City Commission at 334-625-2175.
