Need a new tree to help with your electric bill and energy consumption? Provo Power is giving away free trees (and does so once a year) to shade homes to help with energy bills. Here is how you can get a free tree if you’re a Provo resident:
- Have central air conditioning in your home.
- Sign up for your free tree at switchitprovo.com and submit the online form located under Trees for Conservation. Once determined that you are eligible, a voucher for your free tree will be emailed to you. There is a limited supply and trees will be given out on a first come-first serve basis to customers that qualify. (All forms must be submitted no later than Tuesday, September 2nd – no vouchers will be processed after that date.)
- Pick up your free tree on September 10th, 2014 at 300 West 700 North in Provo, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Pre-approved names and addresses will be verified. The trees will be located on the west side of the power plant. Provo City Power Representatives will be available to help you and answer any questions you may have. Tree species selection is on a first come-first serve basis.
*Residents that have received a tree in in the last three years will not be eligible for a tree this year.
There will be about 20 different tree species to choose from. For more information, visit Provo Power on Facebook or the Provo Mayor’s blog.
