Marlborough to Begin Christmas Tree Pickup Program

The city of Marlborough  announced recently that there will be a curbside pickup of Christmas trees in the coming weeks.

The city’s Department of Public Works, Forestry, Parks and Cemeteries Division, will cover the city collecting Christmas trees for a three week period beginning Monday, Jan. 9 through Friday, Jan 27.

"Trees should be left curbside for pickup on the same day as your normal weekly refuse pickup," said a release. "Condominiums that are on the city’s regular refuse schedule will also be picked up."

Trees that are not completely clean and free of tinsel, ornaments and/or bows will not be picked up. No trees will be picked up in plastic bags or with tree stands, said the release.
