PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh residents who need to recycle their live Christmas tree have several drop-off options available through January.
From Dec. 26-Jan. 26, the city has 11 drop-off sites for live Christmas trees. Dropped off trees will later become pine mulch that’s available to the public for free in the spring.

All ornaments, netting, tinsel, lights and tree stands must be removed before the tree is dropped off.
Residents of some Pittsburgh neighborhoods can have their trees picked up by area Girl Scout troops. Click here to see if you live in an area the troops serve, or to register for pickup.
