Join the Springs Preserve and the Christmas Tree Recycling Committee in giving our community a gift. Recycle your tree.

Starting the day after Christmas and running through mid-January, you can take your cut Christmas trees to one of more than 15 convenient drop sites throughout the valley. Check back as the season approaches for specific drop dates during the 2008-09 season.

The Christmas Tree Recycling Committee, composed of local government agencies, nonprofits and businesses, has worked to keep Christmas trees out of Southern Nevada’s local landfills for the past seven years.

Recycling your tree helps ensure the sustainability of our community by saving valuable landfill space. When chipped into mulch, cut trees become valuable organic material used in landscaping projects that help conserve soil moisture and keep plants healthy.

Before dropping off your tree, remove all non-organic objects such as lights, wire, tinsel, ornaments and nails. Foreign objects can contaminate the mulch and ruin the chipper. Flocked trees cannot be recycled. For more information about the Christmas Tree Recycling Committee, how you can get involved, and tree-drop sites, call (702) 822-7700.
