Another good option in colder climates is to put the tree outdoors to provide wildlife habitat. When spring comes it can still be treecycled, but it can provide a warm and cozy roost in the meantime!

[...] Christmas has come and gone. Pretty soon the trees will be coming down, but HOLD IT! Don’t be chucking your trees out in the garbage just yet! Trees don’t belong in the trash.

Thankfully Chicago leads the nation in the cities with the highest number of Christmas Tree Recycling programs according to Earth911. [...]

Ahem, Brooklyn has 16 locations, not 10. The Bronx has 18 locations, not 17. Both are part of NYC. Manhattan alone has 28 locations. There are 11 more locations in Queens, and another 8 in Staten island. That brings the NYC total to 80 locations, more than the combined total of the other 9 cities in the top 10.

For the current list of NYC locations, see http://www.nycgovparks.org/services/mulchfest/mulchfest.html

And that doesn’t count the two weeks of curbside pickup which begins next Monday.
