Turn your Christmas tree into mulch and compost through the City’s Tree Cycling program. Trees may be dropped off daily through Feb. 7 at the Municipal Service Center, 1260 Columbia Dr., or set out at the curb and picked up as part of the City’s Brush and Bulky Item Collection (BABIC).
Tree cycling guidelines:
- Trees must be natural (not artificial) and unflocked.
- All ornaments, tinsel, tree stands, nails, lights, etc. must be removed.
- Calls for BABIC must be received before the designated collection day
(your BABIC day is the same as your recycling day).
Trees are taken to Texas Pure, where they are turned into mulch and compost that is available for purchase to residents at a discounted price. Texas Pure Products can be ordered in person or over the phone at:
