Oh Christmas tree - what do we do with you now?

The City of LA Bureau of Sanitation has expanded CURBSIDE collection for Christmas trees. If your Christmas tree is too big to cut and place it inside the green waste bin, simply place the tree next to your green waste bin on collection day.

Using your green bin to recycle Christmas tree?

  1. REMOVE all ornaments, decorations, tinsels, and stand from the tree
  2. CUT tree in pieces to fit into the green bin, and
  3. 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.

LAist reports that 100,000 such trees are recycled each holiday season. Pitch yours in this year!

We don't subscribe to trees being cut down for the sake of decoration - I plug mine in - ceramic or artificial.
