If you have to get rid of your Christmas tree in Cobourg, you’re being asked to have it out to the curb by Sunday.
Tree collection is planned, weather permitting, for next week.
Christmas trees are composted and mulched and used internally by Town divisions. Wood chips are used around newly planted trees, on street and parking lot gardens and along the dog park pathways. The wood chips are not available to the public.
The following items must be removed from trees before they placed at the curb.
-Do not wrap your tree in plastic.
-Remove all metal, ornaments, tree stands, tinsel and other decorations.
-Trees should be clear of snow and ice and easily accessible for collection.
-Please place trees with trunk facing the curb for easy collection.
