Recycle Your Christmas Trees Instead of Throwing Them Out

Website for Locations of Nearby Recycling Programs

Let's make the first New Years Resolution by starting the year out on a "green" foot! Instead of throwing your trees out on the street and waiting for your garbage pickup to dispose of them, why not take them to a recycle program in your area. There are a lot of wonderful nutrients that will come out of mulching and composting from the estimated 30-35 million trees that are sold every year for Christmas.

Below is a website you can search for the nearest Christmas tree recycling as well as many other recycling programs in your area.

Give back to Mother Earth in 2008 that she gave to you in 2007.

Have a wonderful and safe holiday!

    Here in Anaheim, California, we put our trees out near the trash bins, but city trucks come by and pick up the trees for recycling.
