The City of North Richland Hills and Republic Services are offering a Christmas tree recycling program for residents starting Dec. 26.
Bare Christmas trees can be dropped off Dec. 26 through Jan. 3 at Green Valley Park at 7701 Smithfield Road or at the parking lot on the north side of the BISD Plaza located at 6351 Boulevard 26. Please place trees in the marked dumpsters. In order for trees to be recycled they should be free of tinsel, ornaments, bags, plastic and stands.
Mulch from the recycled trees will be available for residents to pick up at the two drop-off locations Jan. 5 - 9, while supplies last. Please bring your own container and shovel to load the mulch.
If you’re unable to take your tree to one of the drop off locations, you can put it on the curb on one of your regular trash collection days; however it will go to the landfill and will not be turned into mulch. Trees larger than 5 feet should be cut in half before placing them on the curb.
If you have questions, please contact Neighborhood Services at 817-427-6650.
