2012 Chipper Date

2012 Bring One for the Chipper Atlanta Locations:

Midtown Home Depot, 650 Ponce de Leon
Buckhead Home Depot, 2525 Piedmont Rd., NE

Keep Atlanta Beautiful, Buckhead Boy Scout Troop 298, Davey Tree Company and Atlanta Home Depot's are teaming up again for Bring One for the Chipper annual Christmas Tree recycling program. Since 1991, "Bring One for the Chipper," has collected over 5 million trees. The program produces tangible environmental benefits while helping local governments comply with state regulations that prohibit the disposal of yard trimmings in lined municipal landfills. The mulch from these trees has been used for playgrounds, local government beautification projects, and residential yards. The high quality, weed-free and pest-free mulch can be obtained for your large-scale landscaping project free of charge. Contact Davey Tree Service at 770-451-7911 for more information.
