residents can place trees at the curb after Christmas, then contact the Public Works Department at (563) 284-6571 x11 about collection.
Artificial trees
Have an artificial tree you don't want, but that's still in good condition? Please consider donating it to Habitat for Humanity Quad Cities ReStore, located at 3629 Mississippi Ave., Davenport. For information about donating your tree, please call ReStore at (563) 391-4949 or visit
www.restoreqc.org.
ELECTRONICS RECYCLING
Strands of holiday lights also are being accepted. These lights—along with computers, monitors, televisions, printers, digital cameras and video game systems—are considered electronic waste, or e-waste. These items may be dropped off for recycling from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the
Electronic Demanufacturing Facility, 1048 East 59th St., Davenport. There is no charge to residents from Scott and Rock Island counties. However, fees apply for e-waste from businesses. Call (563) 823-0119 for more information.
The cities of Bettendorf and Davenport collect large e-waste items (but not holiday lights) at the curb from residents on their bulky waste/recycling days and deliver them to the
Electronic Demanufacturing Facility for recycling.
For more information about holiday recycling, please call (563) 386-9575 or check the
recycling page.
COOKING OIL
Leftover or used cooking oil can be recycled at no charge. Please strain any solids out of the oil and bring it to the Scott Area Landfill so that it may be recycled into new fuel through our Household Hazardous Materials program. No appointment is required to drop off used cooking oil on weekdays, but you'll need an appointment to drop off on Saturday morning. Get complete information on our
Household Hazardous Materials page.
EXTRA GARBAGE
Davenport residents may set up to three extra bags of garbage without stickers outside of their cart on their garbage day during the week of Dec. 26-31.
