How We Recycle Your Christmas Tree

Recycling real trees correctly is essential. When improperly disposed of, trees can contribute to methane emissions and unnecessary landfill waste. Our recycling process ensures that each tree is repurposed and given a sustainable second life.

Our Eco Recycling Process Includes:

• Tree chipping into mulch for parks, gardens & landscaping
• Composting through licensed green waste facilities
• Biofuel processing for energy recovery
• Recycling stands, pots & metal bases
• Sorting artificial trees for plastic and metal recycling

We work only with licensed recycling facilities to ensure every tree is processed responsibly.
