 The City of Round Rock encourages you to recycle your Christmas tree on Saturday December 27 or Saturday January 3, 2009 at the Round Rock Brush Recycling Center at 310 Deepwood Drive. Round Rock residents will get more than just a good feeling from recycling their Christmas trees, the City will give away a free seedling (while supplies last) to residents who bring their Christmas trees for recycling.

Before recycling your tree, please remove all decorations, nails, wires, ornaments, tree stands, lights, and tinsel. The trees will be shredded into a fine, usable mulch which is free to Round Rock residents for pickup at the recycling center.

The center is open from 9 am -6 pm for tree recycling on December 27 and January 3. For more information call 512-218-5540 or visit www.roundrocktexas.gov/forestry.
