Beginning last Friday, residents have the opportunity to quickly bring their string lights to one of two drop-off locations. “This holiday season, let’s keep our community green and bright!” announced the city’s Instagram post. According to

Coconut Creek’s social media

, the program excludes items such as loose bulbs, batteries, small electronics, and appliances, focusing squarely on recycling string lights.

The dedicated drop-off points are conveniently located at Winston Park Nature Center, 5201 NW 49th Ave for the northern residents, and behind the Coconut Creek Police Department at NW 22nd St. and Lyons Road for those residing in the southern part of the city. These collection bins will stay accessible to the public throughout the holiday season to accommodate the recycling efforts.

For those seeking additional information or clarity on what can be recycled, the city provides guidance at (954) 956-1491. “Items such as loose bulbs, batteries, small electronics, and appliances will not be collected, as the program specifically aims to recycle string lights and prevent unnecessary waste from ending up in landfills,” city officials emphasized, as per
