CHRISTMAS TREE PICK UP
| |
|
 Advanced Disposal will be picking up Christmas Trees that are set out for disposal during the month of January. Trees should be cut so that they are no more than 4 feet in lengths, placed on their side, and within reasonable reach of Advanced Disposal's driver. Trees will be collected on the regular garbage days, and we encourage residents to get their trees out for collection within the first few weeks of January, to guarantee that they will be picked up.
If you do not want to wait for Advanced Disposal's driver to pick up your tree, a few other options to consider are:
- Delivering your tree directly to Advanced Disposal, during their office hours, and only during the month of January.
- Delivering your tree directly to Marathon County Solid Waste, during their office hours, and year-round.

PET LICENSE
| |
| |
PetData will be sending the 2015 pet license renewal notices directly to your mailbox this year. Pet owners will have several options for renewing the licenses, including by mail or online. New pet owners or pet owners that did not receive a notice may also use the online licensing system. 
This year, cat and dog licenses for Weston and Wausau will be the same shape and color. Purchasing a license and attaching it to your pet's collar is one of the most important things that you can do as a responsible pet owner. Displaying the current license tag on your pet's collar makes it easy for Animal Control officers and shelter employees to quickly locate the lost pet's owner information. It just might be the fastest way to get your lost pet back home to the family!
For more information, you can visit their website at www.petdata.com or call toll-free at 1-866-220-5551.
