Monroe County residents can drop off their trees at the following locations for recycling. Residents save a valuable resource by having the trees chipped into landscape mulch instead of disposing of them in local landfills. Remember to remove all decorations, plastic bags, wires and nails from trees to avoid damage to equipment. Where chipping is available, residents should check with their towns/villages for giveback programs - and bring their own containers.
