SANTA CLARITA, Calif (KABC) -- Christman may be over, but your tree can still make a difference! Santa Clarita made recycling your tree easy when it's time to say goodbye.

For single-family homes, simply place your tree out on your regular trash collection day. But if you're looking for a more convenient option, you can drop it off at one of three locations between now and Jan. 11.

Drop-off locations:
  • Central Park - 27150 Bouquet Canyon Road

  • Canyon Country Community Center - 18410 Sierra Highway

  • Newhall Community Center - 22421 Market Street


The Green Santa Clarita website advises the following before placing trees out for collection:
  • Please remove lights, tinsel, ornaments, and stands.

  • Cut trees larger than 6 feet in half when possible.

  • For multi-family communities: place your trees next to your designated trash enclosure.


As a bonus, you can also drop off live wreaths and garlands to be repurposed into compost, mulch or soil.



It's the perfect way to close out the season and make a positive impact on the environment.
