The Christmas holiday has come to an end, and you’re probably wondering how you’re going to dispose of the tree that served as the centerpiece of your decorations.
Keep Cobb Beautiful will once again have the answer with its participation in the annual statewide Bring One for the Chipper program.

You can also drop off trees at four Cobb County parks: Hurt Road Park, 990 Hurt Road, Austell; Sewell Park, 2055 Lower Roswell Road, Marietta; Noonday Creek Park, 489 Hawkins Store Road, Marietta; and Fullers Park, 3499 Robinson Road, Marietta.
Before dropping off trees, residents should strip them of all decorations. Flocked trees are also prohibited, as they are hazardous to wildlife, Keep Cobb Beautiful said.
There is no limit on how many trees can be dropped off. The mulch from trees are used for playgrounds, beautification projects and individual yards. You can receive free mulch by emailing KeepCobbBeautiful@cobbcounty.org.
