Public Works: Christmas Tree Collection Dates
The Waste Management Section of the Ministry of Public Works announced the Christmas Tree collection dates for 2013. East End will be Wednesday January 23rd, and West End will be Wednesday January 30th. Trees should be taken to your normal residential waste set out location.
A Ministry Spokesperson said: “As all Christmas trees are shredded prior to composting we’d like to remind the public to remove all tinsel, lights, ornaments and tree bags. This keeps our staff safe from flying metal objects, protects valuable shredding equipment and allows us to produce higher quality finished compost.”
The Marsh Folly composting facility accepts horticultural materials from households and commercial entities, composting 10,000 tonnes of material annually. Finished compost surpasses the environmental standards set for EPA grade “A” compost and is available for free to residents and businesses. Please call the Marsh Folly Composting Facility at 292-1517 or 292-7454 for further details.
