Now that the presents are opened and dry needles are starting to fall, you may be wondering what to do with your Christmas tree.<\/p>\n
The city of San Antonio will open four free tree recycling sites<\/a> from Jan. 3 through Jan. 14. The trees will be converted into mulch, which residents can pick up for free from the Bitters Brush Recycling Center\u00a0starting in mid-January.<\/p>\n The following sites are open Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon and Tuesday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with the exception of the Bitters Brush Recycling Center, which is open Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.:<\/p>\n Culebra Bulky Waste Collection Center, 7030 Culebra Road<\/p>\n Frio City Road Bulky Waste Collection Center, 1531 Frio City Road<\/p>\n Rigsby Road Bulky Waste Collection Center, 2755 Rigsby Road<\/p>\n Bitters Bulky Waste Collection Center, 1800 Wurzbach Parkway<\/p>\n Make sure to remove all ornaments, decorations, lights and tree stands before taking your unbagged, live tree to a recycling site. If your tree is over 6 feet tall, cut it in half before dropping it off.<\/p>\n Another option is to put your smaller live tree in your green organic cart during normal weekly collection.<\/p>\n
