As the festive period winds down and the dropping Christmas tree’s needles begin to clog up the vacuum, many will begin to start thinking about taking down the festive decorations.
Quesnel residents are able to drop-off their real Christmas trees at locations throughout the City before Jan. 11, 2019.
The trees are taken to the landfill and are chipped, and later composted.
Drop off locations include:
Johnston Ave Park
LeBourdais Park, by the spray park
Weldwood Park, on Walkem Street
Nadeau Street, by the mailboxes
North Fraser Drive at Foster
Lewis Drive, at the rink
Abbott Drive at Beath Street
Webster Street Park
Roddis Street, at Cariboo Field
Robertson Street Park, near trail entrance
Sugarloaf Park, at Foster Street
Ramey Park, 2882 Quesnel-Hydraulic Road
The City of Quesnel asks that all decorations are removed from the tree prior to dropping them off.
