Don’t Let Christmas Trash Turn Into a Holiday Hassle!

As the holiday festivities wind down, here’s how you can responsibly dispose of your Christmas trash:

🎁 Gift Wrap: If it’s paper-based and free of glitter or foil, it can go in the recycling bin. Otherwise, toss it in the trash.

🎄 Real Trees: Many areas offer tree recycling or curbside pickup. Check your local guidelines to ensure proper disposal.

💡 Holiday Lights: Broken lights should not go in regular recycling bins. Look for special e-waste drop-off locations.

📦 Cardboard Boxes: Flatten and recycle them. If you’re overwhelmed with boxes, space out your recycling over a couple of weeks.

🎉 Styrofoam & Plastic Packaging: These items go in the trash unless your area has specific recycling programs.

By disposing of waste properly, we can keep our neighborhoods clean and make the season a little greener. Let’s start the New Year on the right foot!

Monday, Dec. 30, 2024: The Vermont State Police investigation into the shooting of St. Johnsbury Police Department Capt. Jason Gray remains open and active.
