Free Christmas Trees Available In Las Vegas

After a Christmas tree seller dropped off piles of unsold stock at a tree-recycling drop-off in the Las Vegas area, Clark County officials say the trees would be free to anyone wanting one on the holiday's eve.

Clark County spokesman Erik Pappa said Wednesday he didn't know who dropped off the hundreds of trees, many still wrapped in twine.

Pappa says the trees were dropped off at Sunset Park near McCarran International Airport and people interested in claiming one should enter off Eastern Avenue at entrance F to reach the lot.

The county encourages people to recycle their trees at drop-off sites starting Friday so Wednesday's drop-off came as a surprise.

Pappa says they just ask individuals picking up the free trees to recycle them after Christmas.
