Christmas Tree Recycling!
After the holidays, residents are encouraged to recycle their natural Christmas trees, turning them into nutrient-rich mulch for free.
Individuals can take their tree to one of three Louisville Tree-Cycling centers December 27th - 29th and again January 3rd - 5th. All three locations are open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Citizens taking trees to the sites at Hubbards Lane and Dixie Highway are encouraged to bring containers to bring home the fresh evergreen mulch created from their tree. (Mulch not available at the Waste Reduction Center.)
Recycling Center – East District, 595 N. Hubbards Lane
Recycling Center – Southwest Government Center, 7219 Dixie Highway
Waste Reduction Center - 636 Meriwether Avenue
(Tree drop-off only. Mulch not available at this location.)
For every five trees recycled, approximately 35 pounds of mulch can be created and used to help new plant and tree growth. This mulch performs particularly well for acid-loving plants such as azaleas and rhododendrons.
