MANASSAS, Va. – – Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative will accept post-holiday cut Christmas trees and greens at its Gainesville Technical Center at 5399 Wellington Branch Road, near Interstate 66 and U.S. 29, from Dec. 26, 2023 to Jan. 13, 2024. Residents should leave greens in the parking lot area designated by orange safety cones.
Greens must be free of all decorations, ornament hooks, wires, and light strings.
NOVEC’s Vegetation Management employees will turn the trees, wreaths and garland into mulch to reduce holiday landfill waste.
“Recycling holiday greens is just another way we help area residents and the environment,” said Rick Carpenter, NOVEC Vegetation Management manager.
