Christmas trees should be loaded into one of the containers on the north side of the building during business hours only. Please do not place trees next to the containers.

Recycling 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 be collected for trash, not recycling. Trees taller than 6 feet must be cut in half for trash pick-up.

Free mulch from the trees and leaves collected through the leaf drop-off locations will be available to Arlington residents at the landfil in the spring.
