Starting on Monday, Jan. 5, crews for the Town of Whitecourt will be picking up trees from across the community on a weekly basis throughout the month of January as time permits.
Town officials say there will be no set schedule, and pick up may be delayed due to snow or other higher priority tasks.
Residents are reminded to please place your tree where you would normally place your garbage. For those residents in cul-de-sacs who place their garbage further out into the street, please don’t place your tree where it will obstruct traffic.
Trees must be free of all decorations and tinsel. Residents are asked to please do not place the tree in garbage or tree bags.
The Whitecourt Regional Landfill also has a drop-off area for you to dispose of your tree. The Whitecourt Regional Landfill is open Monday to Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
