These trees are designed to be reusable.
If your tree still works but you no longer need or use it, please consider donating it.
If your old or broken artificial Christmas tree is ready to be recycled,
please drop-off at these locations from 1 November 2026 to 31 January 2027.
This is the second year of an artificial tree recycling pilot we call Project reTREE,
in partnership with WEEE Ireland, Thorntons, Panda and Balsam Hill.
