In the spirit of community and sustainability, Laramie Interfaith is once again stepping up to assist residents in recycling their Christmas trees. As the holiday season comes to an end, the organization aims to address the post-New Year’s challenge of disposing of live trees, which, after 5 weeks, pose a significant fire hazard.

For a modest donation of $10, residents can effortlessly part ways with their festive conifers by leaving them on the curb. Laramie Interfaith’s dedicated partners will then collect these trees and ensure their eco-friendly transformation into mulch at the Laramie landfill. This initiative not only eliminates the hassle of strapping a tree to one’s car roof but also contributes to a cleaner environment.

What’s more, this annual campaign serves a dual purpose. The $10 donation goes beyond tree disposal—it directly supports the community’s essential needs. Contributions will be directed towards providing shelter, utilities, and food to those facing challenges, embodying the principle of neighbors helping neighbors help other neighbors.

Residents are encouraged to place their trees on the curb by January 3rd, with tree pickups commencing on the same day (weather permitting). It’s important to note that there are no specific scheduled pick-up days this year. The tree collection operation will span from January 3rd to January 5th, ensuring a timely and efficient process.
