The holiday season has officially come to an end and now comes the task of taking down all the decorations that have been adorning our homes for the past month.
For those of us with artificial trees, this means taking everything off the tree and putting it in storage for another year; however, for people that have real trees, there comes the question of what to do with the tree.
The City of Martensville has a Yard Waste Composting Site located off of 10th Avenue South, south of the Dog Park, that includes an area designated for tree limbs.
Please ensure that all lights, ornaments, tinsel, string, garland, etc. are all removed from the tree and do not bag or wrap the tree, including in a recyclable tree bag. Do not include any artificial trees or household waste and ensure that trees are not placed in a way that may impede vehicle or pedestrian traffic.
For more information about the Yard Waste Composting Site, visit www.martensville.ca, or contact Martensville City Hall.
