State law requires that these "green" wastes be collected and disposed of separately. Here in Brunswick County, yard wastes including leaves, grass, limbs, dean lumber and Christmas trees are stockpiled at the landfill and ground into a mulch. The mulch, when placed around plants in the garden, improves moisture retention of the soil, protects rooLs and keeps down weeds. In order to keep the mulch clean and attractive, the yard wastes and wood debris must not contain any trash, plastic, metal or treated or painted wood. This year you can bring your tree to either of the county's two solid waste convenience sites, three trans fer stations or the county landfill, said Heather E. Sandncr, Brunswick County recycling coordinator. Convenient sites are on Oxpen Road near Holden Beach and on N.C. 904 near Sunset Beach. They are open Monday through Saturday, 7:30 a.m. until 7 p.m. and Sunday, 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. The transfer stations are in Leland, Southport and Ocean Isle Beach. Tney aic open Monday through Saturday, 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. The landfill, off U.S. 17 in Supply, is open Monday through Saturday, 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. If you live within one of the towns and receive gar bage collection, check with your town hall or garbage hauler about any special collections for trees. Some beach communities in the past have used the trees for erosion control. "When it is time to retire your tree, do not place it in with your household garbage or in any green box or other container not designated for yard wastes," Sandner said. "And be sure to remove all decorations, tinsel, lights and garlands before putting your tree out or bringing it to a drop-off site." Mulch produced at the landfill stockpile is avail able to the public at no charge. For more information, call the landfill at 253-4660 or the recycling program at 253-4488.
