ALLEGHENY COUNTY, Pa. — Allegheny County will once again offer several locations for residents to recycle their Christmas trees after the holidays.

Trees will be accepted starting Dec. 26 through Jan. 14 at all nine county parks from 8 a.m. until dusk.

All lights, decorations, tinsel and stands must be removed from trees before being dropped off.

The trees will be mulched and used in the county parks.

The county said during last year’s program, over 3,000 trees were received and recycled, with the resulting mulch used for various purposes throughout the park’s system of more than 12,000 acres.
