Allegheny County's Annual Tree Recycling Program Underway

Is your Christmas tree dropping its needles or looking a little tired? Drop it off to be turned into mulch at a county park near your home.

Allegheny County's fifth annual Christmas tree recycling program runs through Saturday, Jan. 19 at all nine regional parks.

County residents may drop off trees from dawn to dusk daily. All lights, decorations, tinsel and stands must be removed from trees. 

The trees will be turned into mulch for use in Allegheny County’s nine regional parks.
