Christmas Tree Recycling Starts Dec. 28th
Author: alpar
Christmas Tree Recycling for Anchorage and the Valley runs from December 28 through January 15. Bring your bare (LIVE!) trees to your CARRS – Safeway store in Anchorage, Eagle River or Palmer and drop off in the parking lot (look for the sign!) No wreaths, please. The wire backing is too difficult to remove. And please remove and recycle your plastic bags at the recycling center. Trees are turned into fragrant wood chips and donated to beautify public trails and gardens. This program brought to you by ALPAR, Municipality of Anchorage Solid Waste Services, CARRS/Safeway and our media sponsors; MIX and KBEAR, Anchorage Daily News and GCI. If you want to recycle your artificial tree, consider donating to Bishop’s Attic, Value Village or Salvation Army. Ho Ho Ho! (Don’t forget to recycle your paper gift wrap and reuse those boxes, ribbons and foil wrap next year!)
