Holiday Tree Recycling

Greenwood Village offers holiday tree recycling pickup to residents of single-family homes from December 27 through January 12. Residents may place their trees curbside on their regularly scheduled trash day and crews will collect them to use as mulch. Please make sure the trees are separate from your household trash and all decorations have been removed. For more information, call Parks, Trails, and Recreation at 303-486-5773 or email ptr@greenwoodvillage.com. 

After January 28, 2024, holiday trees can be disposed of through coordinating a Large Item Pick Up with Public Works. Large Item Pick Up is a free service for residents, but residents must call ahead to schedule a date and time to receive this service.
