Each year, the City of San Diego Environmental Services Department hosts its Annual Christmas Tree Recycling Program beginning the day after Christmas, December 26 until January 23.
The program features 16 drop-off locations available to City residents only; including one in University City at Swanson Pool, 3585 Governor Drive.
The Miramar Greenery accepts trees throughout the year.
I Love a Clean San Diego and the County of San Diego have a website at www.WasteFreeSD.org to help County residents find the nearest tree recycling drop-off site in San Diego County.
Curbside collection is also available for residents with yard waste collection.
Both green and flocked trees (fake snow) are accepted. For Greenery, curbside, and drop-off sites, all tree stands, lights, ornaments, tinsel, and other tree decorations must be removed. No artificial trees. Please do not illegally dump any other items at the drop-off locations.
