Summary

Beaufort County says live Christmas trees may be taken to any convenience center by residents with the proper decal; residents without a decal may drop trees at Shanklin Road, Beaufort, or Simmonsville Road locations. The county says recycling trees "saves valuable landfill space."

Beaufort County on-air host Kevin Libby told residents the county will accept live Christmas trees at all convenience centers for households that display the proper decal. "Recycling live Christmas trees saves valuable landfill space," Libby said.

Residents who do not have a convenience-center decal may bring live trees to three designated drop-off points: Shanklin Road, Beaufort, and Simmonsville Road, the bulletin said. The county directed listeners to its recycling information page at beaufortcountysc.gov/recycle for details on acceptable materials and schedules.

The announcement was framed as a weekly public-service reminder rather than a new ordinance or fee change. The bulletin did not list decal costs, eligibility rules, hours for the specific drop-off locations or whether tree recycling will be chipped on-site; those details were not specified in the segment.
