With all the hustle and bustle that comes with the holiday season, it can be easy to forget about the natural world around us. The holiday season is a time for giving and what better way to give than to give to nature. As your Austin movers are finishing up your move to Austin, check out some great ways to stay eco- friendly this holiday season.

We love to embrace the holidays with some great décor, after all, it gets us into the holiday spirit. Austin movers have taken up a tradition of decorating Ashe Juniper trees along highway 360. While this is a fun way to start the holidays, it can be very harmful to the environment. If you are set on decorating a cedar tree this year, make sure that you are doing your part to keep Texas beautiful – instead of using non-biodegradable decorations that will end up as litter or harm our environment, find eco-friendly alternatives. Many DIY projects that include threaded strings of walnuts and cranberries can be a great source of décor and help feed the animals.

After all is said and done, cleaning up after the holidays is a great way to get involved. Love the trees and love Austin by helping to take down any decorations remaining after the holidays. Keep Austin Beautiful is an organization that was established a few years ago to help clean up and restore the 360 highway. This event takes place on January 9, from 9-11 a.m. Volunteer and help maintain our beautiful eco-system after moving to Austin.
