The Keep Henrico Beautiful Committee and Henrico County Department of Public Utilities will accept those now inevitably fire-prone, dried out Christmas trees for recycling into mulch through Sunday, January 8th, the county announced.

The free service, which preserves landfill space and the environment, is available to Henrico residents only. Trees will be accepted at the following locations:

  • Henrico Government Center, 4301 E. Parham Road, in the lower parking lot;
  • Eastern Government Center, 3820 Nine Mile Road, in the front parking lot;
  • Springfield Road Public Use Area, 10600 Fords Country Lane, near Nuckols Road and Interstate 295; and
  • Charles City Road Public Use Area, 2075 Charles City Road.

Trees can be dropped off anytime at the Henrico Government Center and Eastern Government Center and from 7:30 AM – 7:00 PM daily at the Springfield Road and Charles City Road public use areas. Trees must be free of tinsel, lights, ornaments, tree stands, and water bowls, which probably goes without saying.

Free mulch is available to Henrico residents at the public use areas. For information on the tree recycling program, call 804.727.8770.
