City of Longview Tx issued the following announcement.
Rather than send trees to the landfill after the holiday, the City of Longview encourages residents to give their real Christmas trees new purpose as compost or fish habitats. Trees may be taken to the Compost Site at 2020 Swinging Bridge Road or set curbside with other yard waste.
Please remove all decorations from trees including flocking, tinsel, and other ornamentation. Trees with such decoration and artificial trees will not be accepted. If leaving a tree on the curbside, please allow 4 feet of room between the tree and the trash and recycling carts.
As a reminder, throughout the year Longview residents may drop off yard waste at the City’s Compost Site. Acceptable items include limbs, brush, leaves, grass clippings, and pine straw. The mulch and compost that is produced at the Compost Site is available at no charge to City of Longview residents with proof of residency such as a driver license or water bill. Compost Site regular hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday.
Please contact 903-237-1250 for more information about Longview’s recycling programs or visit LongviewTexas.gov/Sanitation.
