The City of Tolleson is keeping its focus on sustainability this holiday season, offering free Christmas tree recycling for residents. If you're wondering how to dispose of your tree post festivities, the city has opened a drop-off point located at the Field Operations Yard, 9601 W. Jefferson Street, as detailed on the City of Tolleson's official website.

Starting from January 2, 2026, until January 16, 2026, locals can take advantage of this service from Monday through Friday between 6:30 AM and 3:00 PM. Keep in mind, participants are required to show proof of residency through a driver's license or state ID, along with a current utility bill. Additionally, preparations such as removing all ornaments, lights, tinsel, and tree stands must be made prior to drop-off, with the city expressly stating that flocked or artificial trees will not be accepted.

By recycling Christmas trees, Tolleson residents contribute to the overall health and cleanliness of the community. The initiative is part of the city's commitment to sustainability and responsible disposal of holiday remnants. The process not only saves valuable landfill space but also turns your once-loved yuletide centerpiece into valuable mulch or other eco-friendly materials.

Should you have any questions regarding the recycling program or the guidelines, the Field Operations Department is reachable at 623-936-7141.
