POSTED BY
Laura

Christmas tree Denver Recycles annual FREE Treecycle program will be recycling thousands of Christmas trees into mulch again this holiday season. The mulch is made available FREE to Denver residents in the spring. To ensure your tree is composted you must drop it off this year. Trees picked up by Denver Waste Management will not be composted. Tree-cycling is easy, but it’s important to follow these steps.

1) Remove all tinsel and decorations for the tree. Real evergreen trees only! No artificial or flocked (spray painted) trees.

2) Bring your tree to one of the Treecycle locations:

*These locations will be closed on Monday, January 16, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. holiday

Weekend Drop Sites: Saturday Jan. 14, 21 & 28, 2023

If you can not take your tree to a recycle location, the city will pick it up as part of large item collection. Important! Trees left out for large item pickup will NOT be composted.

For home pickup: Set your tree out for collection on your Large Item Pickup days during the Treecycle collection period of January 2 to 21, 2023. Your tree should be set out no later than 7 a.m.

Do not place trees inside bags or carts. Trees should be at least 2-feet away from trash, recycling containers and other obstacles. Your tree will be picked up by a special tree collection truck.
