As the holiday season winds down, the city is preparing for the post-Christmas cleanup by announcing a Christmas tree collection service for residents starting in January. According to a recent social media post made by the City of Waukesha, City Public Works staff will collect natural Christmas trees placed at the curb, aligning pickup with residents' regular garbage collection days. Trees are to be stripped of all ornaments, lights, and stands before being set out for collection to facilitate the recycling process.
Residents who miss curbside pickup can drop off their natural Christmas trees at the Drop-Off Center located at 750 Sentry Drive throughout January, free of charge during operating hours. Trees must be completely free of any decorations or objects to ensure proper recycling. This program is part of the city’s effort to promote environmentally responsible disposal of holiday trees.
The City of Waukesha is collecting and recycling natural Christmas trees. Residents can check the city’s website for collection dates and guidelines. This program helps reduce landfill waste and supports proper tree disposal.
