Tree Branch Recycling Program

Program Details

This program is available to Broomfield residents only—NO contractors or non-residents; proof of residency will be required at the gate. The site is monitored 24 hours by a surveillance camera, and violators will be prosecuted for illegal dumping under section 8.04.020 of the Broomfield Municipal Code.

• Only tree branches and shrub branches will be accepted.
  • Please do not bring trash, sod, grass clippings, leaves or other landscape debris, including lumber and fence materials.
  • Leaves are only accepted at the facility in the fall beginning about mid-October through the end of the year.
• No wire, nails, or metal of any kind is allowed due to potential damage to the tub grinder and risk to the operators. Branches more than 18 inches in diameter must be cut into 4-foot lengths.
• Free mulch is available year-round at the Broomfield Recycling Center. Bring your shovel and take as much as you need—there is no limit!

Located at 2990 W. 124th Ave.
