Each
year instead of loading the landfill with the skeletons of Christmas past,
why not return it to the environment?
Christmas tree chipping has become a part of the annual holiday tradition
for the Bowie Police Department, offering residents a chance to dispose of
their trees without burdening our local landfill. We bring the
chipper in the day after Christmas and continue to accept trees for one
week after the first of the new year. Wood chips from the recycled
trees can be used to make mulch for use on a variety of projects both
private and public. The mulch can be taken away, free of charge, to
anyone who would like to have some.
We
will have a spot marked off within the police department parking
lot. Residents can drop off their trees any time, day or night, and
we will be glad to dispose of it. We do ask that you remove any
metal stands or metal objects from the tree before leaving it to be
recycled.
