The city of Durango reminds residents that there is no curbside pickup of Christmas trees.

Residents may drop off their natural trees – free of ornaments and tinsel – at the drop-off site near the large playground area in Santa Rita Park.

The trees will be recycled into mulch.

For more information, call the Parks and Recreation Department at 375-7300.
