Tulsa residents can collect free firewood at the Mulch Site, which also serves people from Bixby and Jenks. Proof of residence, such as a license or utility bill, is required, and residents must load and transport the wood themselves using personal vehicles or containers.
As per the City of Tulsa website, Philip Eakes, Refuse & Recycling Manager, said the program helps residents save on heating costs while supporting the city’s recycling efforts. The firewood comes from trees removed or damaged around the city.
The Mulch Site at 2100 N. 145th East Ave is open six days a week, excluding Wednesdays, during daytime hours. The program is self-service, and the wood may require drying before indoor use.
Residents are advised to follow burn bans and handle fires safely. Additional information about the program and other city waste services is available on the City of Tulsa’s website.
