Treecycling

After the holidays, residents are urged to participate in the "Treecycling" tradition by dropping off their trees at several parks throughout the City of Long Beach from December 26 to January 9.

In addition, residents with City refuse service can leave their trees out where trash is normally collected by 7:00 am on Saturday, January 10, and those trees will be Treecycled automatically.

All decorations and stands must be removed, and trees over 12 feet tall must be cut in half.

The following Treecycling sites are open from December 26 to January 9, Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and on Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm:
