Christmas may be over, but many homes are still covered in decorations. While some tend to remain in the holiday spirit long after Christmas, leaving lights and their tree up for weeks, others are ready to move on, and give their home a new look for the rest of winter. Of course, some will use the excuse of not knowing what to do with their Christmas tree as to why their decorations are still up, but luckily there are multiple businesses now open around the metroplex to help properly get rid of Christmas tree.
For families that don’t use a live tree for Christmas, usually their clean up consists of storing away their tree in the closet until next year, or simply throwing it away. However, those that went with a live tree for the holiday season are now stuck with something they can’t simply put in the garbage. For those people here are some options around DFW to get rid of their tree.
