Christmas Tree Disposal At DPW Center, Or LHS Fundraiser

The following information is provided by the Lynnfield DPW on the town website: 

The DPW Yard Waste Recycling Center will be open (weather permitting) to Lynnfield residents who have current recycling stickers beginning Thursday, January 2nd to Saturday, January 11th from 7:30am-3pm each day, excluding Sunday January 5th, to accept Christmas trees.

Please do not place them out with your trash because they cannot and will not be picked up by our trash collection contractor. Christmas trees must have all decorations removed so that it can be put through a brush chipper.
In the event of a snow storm the Center will close for the day and reopen the following day.

If you need to purchase a recycling sticker (current stickers are good until June 30, 2014) you may do so by stopping by the DPW Office at Town Hall before entering the Recycling Center. The cost is $10 ($5 for seniors over 65). If you have any questions you should call the DPW Office at 781-334-9500.
