With the holiday season winding down, residents of Cudahy can bid farewell to their Christmas trees during the city's Curbside Christmas Tree Collection, happening January 5 through January 9. The Cudahy Department of Public Works (DPW) has announced that trees will be picked up if they're left at the curb, making disposal one less post-holiday hassle for locals.
If you're not ready to part with your tree just after the New Year, or if you simply miss the curbside collection dates, there’s another option. According to an official announcement on the City of Cudahy's website, you can bring your tree to the City Drop-Off on January 17, 2026, from 8 am to 1 pm. This provides a convenient alternative for those holding onto their holiday spirit a bit longer or seeking to recycle their trees.
The city's initiative is designed not just for convenience but also with sustainability in mind. By facilitating proper disposal and recycling of Christmas trees, Cudahy helps prevent illegal dumping and encourages residents to consider more environmentally friendly practices as the holiday season comes to a close.
Residents looking for more information on the Curbside Christmas Tree Collection can find details on the city's website. It's important to note that trees must be free of all decorations, tinsel, and stands before being placed curbside or dropped off, to ensure they can be properly processed.
