Christmas Tree Recycling

We took our tree down yesterday, so I was happy to see the news (from several sources) that the Boy Scouts are picking up Christmas trees to be recycled again this year. All they ask is a donation of $5 or more; the money goes towards troop activities. If you received a flyer you don’t have to do anything but kick the tree (stripped of decorations & lights) to the curb by 9am on one of the pick-up days. If you didn’t get a flyer you can call the “tree hotline” for your area and they’ll add you to the list.

Pick-up Dates:
January 1, 2, 8, 9 – put your tree out by 9am

Tree Hotlines:
Northwest Bend (west of Third Street and north of Newport/Greenwood), 541-385-2692
Southwest Bend (west of Third Street and south of Newport/Greenwood), 541-385-3977
Northeast Bend (east of Third Street and north of Greenwood/Highway 20), 541-385-2672
Southeast Bend (east of Third Street and south of Greenwood/Highway 20), 541-385-3942
Sunriver, 541-385-3935
La Pine, 541-385-3971
