Christmas Tree Recycling Opportunities

20140102_084708

The City of LA Bureau of Sanitation has a few solutions for recycling your Christmas tree. Chief among them is the curbside collection program.

If your Christmas tree is too big to cut and place it inside the green waste bin place the tree next to your green waste bin on collection day. If you are using your green bin to recycle your Christmas tree, be sure to remove all ornaments, decorations, tinsels, and the stand from the tree. Then cut the tree in pieces to fit into the green bin, and place the tree pieces inside the green bin for regular pick-up on collection day. Collected Christmas trees will be recycled into compost and mulch.

Other options:

Multi-Family Residential Christmas Tree Recycling

Residents of multi-family buildings are requested to place their Christmas trees at the curbside on the day of collection by the Bureau of Sanitation. Remove all ornaments, decorations, tinsels, and the stand from the tree.
