UNDATED - If you are already thinking about what to do with your Christmas tree when you take it down, you might want to consider recycling it.
If it is a cut tree, Georgia's annual Bring One For The Chipper program would welcome it.
There are drop-off spots all over northeast Georgia, including each trash compactor site in Hall County; the two Home Depot locations in Forsyth County; Home Depot and the county recycling center in Dawson County; five sites in Habersham County; each county fire station and other locations in Gwinnett; and, three in White County.
Check the link below which will carry you to a website which lists other Bring One For The Chipper sites in Georgia.
