For those that celebrate, Christmas can be a special holiday to enjoy the glow and cheer of a decorated tree.

But after it's time to take down the tree, don't dump it! Recycle it for free!

Starting Thursday, December 26 to Sunday, January 5, Visalia residents can drop off their holiday tree for free.

By residents bringing their Christmas tree to one of the drop off locations, they are keeping it out of the trash. The trees received will be turned into compost. Before trees are dropped all ornaments, lights, tinsel and any stands should be removed.

- Food 4 Less: 2025 N. Dinuba Blvd. (behind Panda Express)
- Neighborhood Church: 5505 W. Riggin Ave.
- Parkside Chapel: 3200 E. Walnut Ave. (East of Lovers Lane)
- Save Mart: Akers & Goshen (behind the shopping center)
- Sequoia Mall: Behind Hobby Lobby
- Sierra Baptist Church: 1437 E. Walnut Ave.
- St. Johns & Lovers Lane: Parking lot at E. St. Johns Parkway

Please remember, this event is for Christmas trees only. Illegal dumping is prohibited and violators will be prosecuted.
