Christmas trees will be removed from the streets of St. Petersburg later than usual

This year Christmas trees will disappear from the streets of St. Petersburg later than usual. If in previous years the decorated trees were removed by January 27, this year some of them still remain in their places, writes "DP".

The reason for the delay is the lack of manpower. In the city center of advertising and festive decoration claim that the dismantling of Christmas trees will be completed by February 14. And in the procurement materials for the decoration of St. Petersburg for the holiday indicates that the dismantling of Christmas trees should be from January 15 to March 15.

TV channel "78" specifies that in the city this year installed more than 100 artificial Christmas trees and two live ones, which are located in Kronstadt and on Palace Square. The main city Christmas tree began to dismantle in mid-January and completed the work in the 20s.

Earlier, experts of the network of goods for construction and home improvement "Lemana PRO" gave some advice on how to properly dispose of the Christmas tree and where it can be surrendered. So, you can take the tree to special reception points for recycling. In large cities there are temporary points of acceptance of Christmas trees within the framework of the project "Christmas tree cycle". In St. Petersburg there are both temporary collection points and eco-taxis for collecting Christmas trees.
