RECYCLE YOUR CHRISTMAS TREE

It takes years for anything, even organic things like Christmas trees, to breakdown in a landfill. Tree recyclers turn trees into wood chips, which can be used to help prevent erosion on beaches and hiking trails.

Some municipalities handle the recycling - all you have to do is leave your tree at the curb. Below is a list of some local recycling programs or click here to find a recycling program in your area. If you can’t find information about a recycling program in your area, check with the company handles your garbage disposal and recycling.
