Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful’s Christmas Tree Recycling Program is open starting the day after Christmas, Dec. 26, through Jan. 10, 2023.
This year KTMB will also be recycling non-working Christmas lights at three staffed locations.
There are six community drop-off locations. Trees must be free of lights, ornaments, flocking, tinsel and wreaths.
KTMB is collaborating with the Truckee Meadows Fire Protection District to include additional drop-off locations in the outlying communities of Lemmon Valley, Washoe Valley and Spanish Springs.
Drop-off locations are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.:
- Bartley Ranch Regional Park: 6000 Bartley Ranch Rd., also accepting non-working Christmas lights
- Reno Sports Complex: 2975 N. Virginia St., also accepting non-working Christmas lights
- Shadow Mt. Sports Complex: 3300 Sparks Blvd., also accepting non-working Christmas lights
- Truckee Meadows Fire Station: Spanish Springs at 500 Rockwell Blvd. (unmanned drop-off location)
- Truckee Meadows Fire Station: Lemmon Valley at 130 Nectar St. (unmanned drop-off location)
- Truckee Meadows Fire Station: Washoe Valley at 1240 East Lake Blvd. (unmanned drop-off location)
- The Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe is hosting a non-staffed drop-off location at the Community Garden located off Hollywood Road.
A $5 donation is suggested to help cover program costs.
Volunteers are still needed to help at the Bartley Ranch, Reno Sports Complex, and Shadow Mountain locations. Sign up at ktmb.org/volunteer.
