Happy New Year, Austinites. To start the year off on the right foot, we need a little help from you.

Every morning, more than 69,000 of you welcome us into your inbox. And each day, we do our very best to provide you with timely, relevant information so you can get the most out of the city we call home.

We’re asking you to take two minutes to tell us a little more about yourself because the more we know about who you are, the better we can deliver information that you care about. Just two minutes. Feel free to skip any questions you don’t want to answer. We don’t want to pry. (Okay, we do, but for a good reason.)

We’ll be selecting one lucky survey participant to win $500. We’re rooting for you, ATX.

Thanks in advance for your feedback,

— Figi + London

Recycling your Christmas tree

Recycling your Christmas tree in Austin, TX
The Driskill Christmas Tree

If you celebrate Christmas, you know that sooner or later you have to deal with that “Night of the Living Dead” tree in the corner.

We have some tips on how to put an old tree to good use.

Curbside pickup

The City of Austin will recycle your tree for you: all you have to do is bring it out to the curb on your neighborhood’s usual composting pick-up day. To make sure it gets properly recycled, remove the tinsel, garland, tree stand + ornaments before bringing it out — trees over six feet tall should be cut in half.

Drop-off recycling

Maybe you just can’t wait for curbside pickup. Drop the tree off yourself at Zilker Park, or a number of other free drop off locations, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. this weekend. Be sure to properly secure the tree to your car if you opt for this route.

From the editor
Welcome to 2024, Austin. One of my favorite things to do at the beginning of the year is set some resolutions. For those of you who don’t know, I’m a bit of an amateur artist, so this year I want to really tap into my creative side.
