Please do not take Christmas trees to the leaf recycling drop-off sites.

Free mulch from the trees will be available to residents at the landfill in the spring for gardens and landscapes.

Before you recycle your Christmas tree:

  • Remove lights, ornaments and tree stands, including wooden stands and nails.
  • Do not place the tree in a plastic bag.
  • Flocked trees are acceptable for recycling.

Trees placed curbside will not be recycled. Trees taller than 6' must be cut in half to be collected curbside.
