The City is hosting its annual Christmas Tree Recycling Event to help Shoreline residents recycle their holiday trees.

Please remove all hooks, ornaments, tinsel and tree stands. Please do not bring flocked, artificial or garden trees, branches, wreaths, or swags.

Trees will be recycled by CleanScapes, but they won’t be chipped on-site at the event.

If there is snow or ice on the road that weekend, call 206-801-2450 on the day of the event for a recorded message on the event status.

If the event is cancelled or you cannot make it to the event, other options for disposal of holiday trees in Shoreline include:

• If you have CleanScapes yard debris collection, recycle your tree curbside. Cut your tree in half if it is taller than 4 feet, and place it next to your yard debris container at the curb for collection at no cost. No flocked, tinseled or artificial trees are accepted; and trees without a yard debris cart next to them will not be collected.

• If you have a flocked, tinseled or an artificial tree, and you have CleanScapes curbside garbage collection, cut it to fit inside your garbage cart for free collection. If the tree is taller than 4 feet, cut it in half and put it next to your garbage cart for a collection cost of $3.92.

• Recycle your tree for a cost at the Shoreline Recycling and Transfer Station at 2300 N 165th Street. Call 206-296-4466 for information on rates.
