Great Falls, Mont – As we pack away our holiday decorations, remember that live Christmas trees can be recycled for other purposes.
Great Falls residents are encouraged to recycle their live Christmas trees from December 26, 2023 through January 9, 2024. Trees can be dropped off in the tree recycling containers located at the following locations:
Meadowlark Park – Fox Farm and Park Garden Road
American Little League (Parking Lot) – 1100 38th Street North
Before recycling your Christmas tree remove all lights, decorations, tree stands, etc. Flocked trees cannot be recycled and should not be taken to recycling locations. Deposit only your live Christmas tree in the containers. Commercial trees are not being accepted. The recycled Christmas trees will be composted or used to improve fish habitat.
The City of Great Falls, Great Falls Fish Wildlife & Parks, and Walleyes Unlimited Great Falls Chapter sponsor the Christmas tree recycling project. For more information, contact Public Works Sanitation at 406-771-1401.
