Bring One for the Chipper in January | 2025
You may be wondering what to do with your Christmas tree after the holiday, and there’s no better time to Bring One for the Chipper!
2025 Event Details
Saturday | January 4th
Some locations run various dates from December 26th through January 31st.
Instead of placing the tree on the curb (which will eventually end up in a landfill), bring it to one of the several “Bring One for the Chipper” tree recycling events.
The annual Georgia Christmas tree recycling program has recycled over 6 million trees and counting, recycling them into mulch donated to playgrounds, government beautification projects, parks, and individual yards.
