EP Taking Old Christmas Trees at Drop-off Sites Today

Curbside collection of natural trees runs Jan. 6 - 17.

The East Providence Department of Public Works and Parks Division starts collecting and chipping Christmas Trees for use as mulch for City 
projects today at specific drop-off locations. Drop off your tree through Jan. 17 at the following sites: 

Agawam Field
Hull St. Playground
Pierce Field
Central Av Playground
Silver Grassy Plain Park
Sabin Point
Park Carousel Parking Lot
Spring Playground
Kent Field
Riverside Rec. Field

Curbside collection will be available Jan. 6 - Jan. 17. Please place trees at the curb on the same day as your Rubbish collection day for pickup. Trees will not be collected with your rubbish - they will be collected separately by city crews for chipping. 

Please remove all ornaments, lights & stands. No wreaths, garland, roping, or artificial trees - natural trees only.

For more information, call the Recycling Office at 435-7710.
