The city of Winston-Salem will collect Christmas trees after the holidays to be turned into mulch for city parks and roadsides.
Residents in single family homes inside the city limits can put Christmas trees at the curb for pick-up by city brush crews.
All lights, decorations, stands and nails must be removed from trees. Officials say it may take several weeks to collect all the trees.
People who live in apartments, who live outside the city limits or who want to dispose of their trees quickly can take them to the following recreation centers for recycling through Jan. 30:
● Crawford Park, 4226 Oak Ridge Drive.
● Hanes Hosiery Recreation Center, 501 Reynolds Blvd.
