Gaithersburg City Curbside Tree Recycling


Please recycle your holiday trees as part of the City of Gaithersburg's weekly recycling program. Simply put the tree out curbside on Thursday, our recycling day, and it will be collected by the City contractor. Please note these helpful reminders:

  • Trees must be in their natural state.
  • Remove all decorations, including tinsel and angel hair.
  • Be sure there is no metal attached to the tree.
  • Do not wrap trees in plastic.
  • Place the tree curbside next to your green recycling bin.
  • Artificial trees will not be recycled.
  • Trees with root balls will not be recycled.
  • Trees will only be picked up from your residence. Do not take the trees to other sites such as schools or public buildings.

For more information on tree recycling or other services contact 301-258-6370 or publicworks@gaithersburgmd.gov.

 

This notice was provided by the City of Gaithersburg and is posted on ActiveRain as a community service.  Character counts in Gaithersburg.

It is sometimes a good practice to revisit old blogs and reblogs. We might even find some good ideas for current posts.
