PRNewswire
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.

Saturday, Jan. 13 is the last day to recycle your Christmas tree through Alabama Power and Bruno's Supermarkets.

Through Saturday, you can recycle your tree by bringing it to a recycling site in your area. Alabama Power has teamed up with participating Bruno's Supermarkets, BFI, Waste Management, Superior Waste Services, the Boy Scouts of America, B.A.S.S. and the Alabama Environmental Council for this year's "Recycle the Spirit" Christmas tree recycling program.

Recycling trees helps keep the environment cleaner, healthier and more attractive. More than 462,000 trees have been recycled since the program was established in 1989. "Recycle the Spirit" is providing trees for fish habitats in eight lakes and mulch for area beautification. The recycling program has saved more than 100,000 cubic yards of landfill space.

To participate, bring your Christmas tree to one of the 36 collection sites throughout your state, through Jan. 13. Trees will not be accepted after Jan. 13. Please remove the decorations and stand from your Christmas tree before dropping it off in the designated area at participating Bruno's, Food World and Food Fair stores.
