Jefferson Parish Christmas Tree Recycling


Jefferson Parish is preparing for its 17th Annual Christmas Tree Marsh
Restoration Project. All residents of unincorporated Jefferson Parish and
Lafitte are asked to place their tree curbside on the evening of January 9th
for collection on January 10, 11, and 12, 2008. Trees should be stripped of
all tinsel, garland, lights, ornamentation, plastic bags and tree stands.
Flocked or painted trees cannot be used with this project. Garbage trucks
will make only one pass through each neighborhood, typically on the second
scheduled collection day. For more information, contact the Jefferson Parish
Department of Environmental Affairs at 736-6440.
