Recology will collect unflocked, undecorated and natural holiday trees in lengths up to four feet. Customers who subscribe to food/yard waste collection service may place trees out for collection on their regularly scheduled food/yard waste collection day.

Customers who don’t subscribe to food/yard waste collection service can schedule a tree pickup for an additional fee by contacting Recology customer service at 206-381-6980 or mercerisland@recology.com

Flocked trees are not accepted in compost collection because flocking contains non-compostable materials including adhesives, flame retardant or additives. Flocked trees may be disposed as garbage for an additional fee.
