Updated for 2019-2020 Christmas Tree Disposal Locations

It seems so sad to post this information today because it seems like we JUST cut down and took home our beautiful, perfect tree! However, I know that our family will be taking down their tree tomorrow before we leave town so maybe some of you have already moved on and are ready to ring in the New Year without the leftovers on the old year hanging around.

Indianapolis and surrounding area residents are invited to participate in Christmas Tree Recycling. Please, please, please remove all decorations, lights and anything else that isn’t a natural part of the tree! Please remove the trees from any garbage bags or tree bags or twine that you might have used to transport them. Trees are mulched and then used in city parks and other areas.
