Allegheny County Annual Christmas Tree Recycling Program

Christmas Trees Accepted Through Saturday, January 14, 2024 at County Parks

By Allegheny County Parks Department December 27, 2023

The annual Christmas Tree Recycling kicked off this morning at 8 AM to allow residents to drop off Christmas trees. All lights, decorations, tinsel and stands must be removed from trees prior to drop-off. Trees will be mulched and used in the county parks.


The program runs through Sunday, January 14, 2024, at all nine county parks and is available from 8:00 am until dusk, daily.

The list of drop-off locations is also available online at https://www.alleghenycounty.us/Parks-and-Events/Events/Christmas-Tree-Recycling-Program.

During the 2022-23 program, over 3,000 trees were received and recycled, with the resulting mulch used for various purposes throughout the park system’s 12,000+ acres.
