Last Chance to Bring One for the Chipper in Lilburn

Still have that Christmas tree lying around somewhere in your back yard? If you live in the city of Lilburn, you still have a chance to get rid of it by donating it to the Chipper program.

The city is accepting live trees through Tuesday, Jan. 31, at the Maintenance Yard (across from the police station, on Railroad Avenue).

Leave your trees at the bend in the fence that's to the left when you enter the parking lot. That gives the city easy access to the chipper, according to the city's website.

Just be sure to remove any decorations, lighting, nails and any other object from the tree before dropping it off.

Trees donated to Georgia's Bring One for the Chipper program are used as mulch on playgrounds, in parks and government beautification programs, and in individual yards.

If you can't drop your tree off by tomorrow, you can always donate it to the which uses the trees for animal shelter in the winter and as a nesting area.
