Officials have asked that everyone remove all garbage from the tree. Also place your tree(s) clear of garbage cans to eliminate interference with garbage can pick-up.

Trees over 6 feet in length must be cut in half.

Trees SHOULD NOT

  • Be wrapped in plastic bags
  • Contain any metal, wire, plastic, decorations
  • Removed from base.

Flocked trees, artificial trees, trees with decorations/lights/garland will not be collected. Wreaths and other manufactured products containing wire should be disposed of through regular garbage service.
