You shouldn’t recycle Christmas lights, as they can tangle in machines and cause safety hazards or damage.

Tissue paper, foil wrapping paper, and Christmas trees (fake or real) are not recyclable. Any non-foil gift wrap is safe to recycle.

You can find a full list of what you can and can’t recycle on the Rumpke website.
