Recycle Your Christmas Tree

After the holiday festivities are over, Arlington residents and businesses are encouraged to recycle their real Christmas trees.

Two free drop-off locations are available between Dec. 27, 2023, and Jan. 12, 2024:

North Arlington

Arlington Landfill

800 Mosier Valley Road

7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, weather permitting

Once you pass the scalehouse at the landfill entrance, follow the signs to the Living Earth mulching facility. Please note that not all the roads at the landfill are paved, and if you enter the landfill when it’s raining, you will encounter mud. In the case of rain, it is recommended that passenger cars use the second drop off facility at Calloway’s. For questions about the landfill, please call 817-354-2300.

South Arlington

Calloway's Nursery

4940 S. Cooper St.

9 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily

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 six 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 landfill in the spring.
