The town’s Christmas Tree, Holiday Light, and Styrofoam Recycling Event — for Concord residents only — continues on Saturday at 755 Walden Street from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
Christmas trees and holiday lights will be accepted. Residents can also drop off Styrofoam blocks in pre-purchased bags, which are available at the Clinton Public Works campus at 133 Keyes Road. Bags may also be purchased via concordma.gov.
Wreaths and garlands can’t be recycled because of their wire frames, but the Concord Free Public Library will hold a wreath composting event from 10:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. on Saturday, February 1, at the Fowler Branch at 1322 Main Street. Learn more at concordlibrary.org.
Otherwise, trees can be brought to the compost site when it reopens in April, and wreaths and garlands can go in the regular trash.
Concordians parted ways with their holiday trees last weekend.
