The Garrett County Department of Solid Waste and Recycling invites Garrett County residents to participate in Christmas tree recycling at the county landfill during the months of January and February.
Trees will be accepted for recycling from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, at the landfill location at 3118 Oakland Sang Run Road.
Christmas tree recycling is available to Garrett County residents free of charge. A residential disposal permit is not required to participate in this program or any other recycling program in Garrett County.
Christmas trees may also be recycled at home by placing cut branches and needles under trees and shrubs as a temporary winter mulch – or by chopping them up and adding them to compost piles.
“Please remove all tinsel, garland and ornaments before recycling Christmas trees at home or the landfill location,” said recycling coordinator Kim Madigan.
Persons with questions regarding the free recycling programs in Garrett County may contact Madigan at 301-387-0322 or kmadigan@garrettcounty.org.
