Check Christmas tree collection eligibility

To check your eligibility for Christmas tree collection through our bulk collection program, visit this page and enter your address.

If you’re eligible for Christmas tree collection

Depending on your area, Christmas tree pickup may incur a one-time charge. For locations where pickup is available, follow these guidelines:

  • Ensure your tree is not buried in snow, frozen to the ground or bagged.

  • Trees should not exceed 50 lb. in weight.

  • Trees between 6–8 ft. must be cut into smaller sections.

  • Remove lights, ornaments and tinsel. Lights may contain copper, plastic or glass and can usually be recycled at local hardware stores or Earth 911.
