Chicago's Tree Recycling Program runs from January 11th - 25th at 27 parks across the City. Trees can be dropped off anytime during normal business hours.
Only live/natural trees without flocking are accepted (no garland or wreaths). Because the trees are mulched, all tinsel, ornaments, lights, and stands must be removed. Plastic bags used for transport should also be removed before putting trees in the stalls.
Six locations will also have free mulch available to residents on a first-come, first-served basis, starting Monday, January 8th: Lincoln Park, Margate Park, Mt. Greenwood Park, North Park Village, Warren Park, and the Forestry Site..
