Recycling Locations
Before dropping your tree off at a recycling center, please remove all ornaments, lights, wire, string, and other decor.
Real Trees can be recycled by:
- Chipping them into mulch
- Putting them in lakes to provide a place where fish can live and grow.
Good news for Murfreesboro residents. Your Christmas trees will be picked up at the same time yard waste is removed.
