For 30 years, the Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation’s Bring One for the Chipper program has helped Georgians recycle their Christmas trees. Sponsors like The Home Depot, The Davey Tree Expert Company, Georgia Forestry Commission, One Tree Planted, and WXIA-TV make it possible for us to implement the program in hundreds of communities statewide. Since its inception, the Keep Georgia Beautiful network has recycled over 6 million Christmas trees and that number continues to grow each year.
Keep Statesboro-Bulloch Beautiful has partnered with Bulloch County and the City of Statesboro to host its annual Bring One for the Chipper event. Providing an option for citizens to recycle their Christmas trees, it keeps trees out of the landfill so that they do not take up valuable space.
There will be two locations for citizens to recycle their Christmas trees.
• Anderson’s General Store (23736 US-80, Statesboro, GA, 30461). Anderson’s General Store will have a drop off and chipping location on January 11th from 9 A.M. – 1 P.M.
• City of Statesboro Public Works (5 Braswell St, Statesboro, GA, 30458). Statesboro Public Works will be collecting drop off trees from December 27, 2024, to January 10, 2025, during normal operating hours.
Anyone who brings their Christmas tree to be recycled on January 11th at Anderson’s will receive free seeds to plant, a free seedling, and free mulch upon request.
For more information, please contact Keep Statesboro-Bulloch Beautiful ksbb@statesboroga.gov
As your holiday celebrations come to a close, please consider bringing your tree to our chipper event.
Let’s Recycle It!
This program gives citizens a way of disposing their Christmas trees and keeping them out of the landfill so that they do not take up valuable space.
Fish Habitat
We also use Christmas trees to be repurposed into fish habitats in local waters.
Time to Take It Down?
Mulch Available
Christmas trees can be recycled into mulch and we enjoy providing that mulch to our community members.
