Right now it's more than likely one of the most beautiful things in your home, but in just a few days, you'll want to toss it in the trash.

I'm talking about your Christmas tree of course, and the Sioux Falls Regional Sanitary Landfill has just released their 2015 Christmas tree drop-off schedule.

Beginning Saturday, December 26, 2015, and continuing through Sunday, January 17, 2016, the Landfill will offer two different sites for residents to drop off their real Christmas trees for free.

The sites will be open daily from 9 A.M to 5 P.M and are located at: 1015 East Chambers Street just west of Cliff Avenue by the Household Hazardous Waste Facility. Access to the site is available from North Drive to East Ash Street to Chambers Street, and from North Cliff Avenue to Chambers Street. The driveway just west of the Household Hazardous Waste Facility will be the only access point.

The other drop off site can be found at 100 Lyon Boulevard, that's located just west of the W.H. Lyon Fairgrounds. Access is available from West 12th Street to North Lyon Boulevard and from West Madison Street to North Lyon Boulevard. The driveway just north of the railroad crossing will be the only access point.

Here's what you need to know prior to drop off: Customers must remove all accessories from the Christmas trees, including lights, ornaments, decorations, and stands. Artificial trees, bags, leaves, rubble, or household garbage will not be accepted. Plus, large loads and commercial loads will not be accepted and must go directly to the Sioux Falls Regional Sanitary Landfill

If you need more information, please contact the Sioux Falls Regional Sanitary Landfill office at 367-8162.
