Once the holidays wind down and it's time to put away all the decorations, remember the City of Allen offers a collection of natural Christmas trees for residents as part of its City-wide composting program. Participating in this free program is simple! Make sure the tree is smaller than six feet or cut into pieces smaller than six feet in length, then set it out on your normal trash day. The City cannot accept any flocked trees for composting and all ornaments, lights, decorations and base stations must be removed prior to collection. The Christmas tree collection runs through Jan. 10. Read more...
