Tree pick-up underway; annual bonfire Jan. 6

Marblehead’s annual tree burning is set for Tuesday, Jan. 6, at Riverhead Beach.

“Citizens are more than welcome to bring their trees the night of the tree burning and we will throw it on for them,” Fire Chief Jason Gilliland told the Current

Republic Services crews are picking up trees curbside now through Jan. 16. Trees must be bare — with no lights, ornaments, bags or stands. Wreaths and garlands are not being collected. After Jan. 16, residents must take their trees to the Transfer Station.
