Christmas tree recycling a must in Germany


***image1***KMC residents need to properly recycle their Christmas trees.
Off-base residents can drop off the trees at the official collecting places for green waste in their villages or can place their trees on the pickup days in front of the house towards the edge of the road by 6 a.m.

On-base residents should place trees next to dumpsters Sunday night for the Monday tree pickup.

The trees will be used to make compost, so residents are asked to make sure all decorations are removed.
