The York County Solid Waste Authority (YCSWA) will hold a free Christmas Tree Recycling Program for all York County residents. Residents may bring their tree to the parking lot directly across the street from the York County Resource Recovery Center, 2651 Blackbridge Road, York. The program will run through Tuesday, Jan. 31.

Residents must remove any ornaments, lights, tinsel, and protective bags prior to dropping their tree off. H & H General Excavating will recycle the trees into mulch. This program provides a way for residents to easily dispose of their Christmas tree while reducing waste.

Many municipalities now offer curbside Christmas tree collection for their residents, as well. Residents should call their municipal office to see if their municipality offers a curbside collection program.
