Christmas is Over, Now What To Do With That Tree?

Christmas is over and pretty soon you will be wondering what to do with that real tree whose needles are falling like rain and is drying out.

The city of Roseville says you have a few choices available. In a weekly newsletter update, the city is offering these options:
 

• Arrange a pick-up with your trash hauler. Check to make sure they will take it to a compost site.
• Take your tree for free to the Midway Area Ramsey County Yard Waste site on Pierce Butler Route. Sorry, no wreaths or items that have wire, etc. They are open Jan. 12 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Jan. 13 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call 651-633-EASY (3279) for directions and other information.
• Rent a chipper from a home improvement store. Mulch your tree and use it in your garden or share the mulch with a friend who gardens.
• Take it to the  Resources Recovery Tech disposal site at 630 Malcolm Ave. in Minneapolis (just off 280 and University Ave.). You'll have to pay a fee to dispose of it there. They're open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Call 612-331-4610 for directions.
