"][/caption] Our least favorite part about the New Year is the daunting task of taking down and putting away all of our Christmas decorations. Christmas is one of our favorite holidays and the decor brings so much cheer to the office, we're sad to see it go! But if you're anything like us, you probably feel the same and you probably have no idea what to do with your Christmas tree once the twinkling lights and glittering ornaments have been boxed up and stored. If you live in Long Beach, however, have no fear, because your tree can be recycled! Recycle your Christmas tree for FREE by simply dropping it off at one of the following recycling locations any day between now and January 7: El Dorado Park - 2760 N.
