Citizens have several options to recycle their trees in 2022:

Option 1: Republic Services

• Residents participating in the city-wide solid waste program with Republic Services can dispose of Christmas trees free of charge on their usual compost day during the week of January 4-7, 2022 or January 18-21, 2022.
• Trees need to be placed next to the compost bin and must be cut in half (each piece no more than 4 feet in length) and tied together with rope or twine. Trees can also be collected as a bulk item. If you have any questions, contact Republic Customer Service 303.286.5400 (Monday-Friday 8 AM - 5 PM) or visit LouisvilleCO.gov/Republic and complete the website contact form.
