Christmas Tree Collection

Collection Day
Christmas tree collection occurs on your regular collection day during a pre-determined two week time frame in January. Refer to the Waste Collection Schedule for collection dates specific to your area.

Collection Time
Place your Christmas tree at the curb no earlier than 6:00 p.m. the night before collection and no later than 7:00 a.m. the day of collection. The time of collection in your area may change at any time without notice.

Set Out and Placement Reminders

Christmas trees larger than 2.13 m. (7 ft.) cannot fit in to our collection vehicles and are required to be cut in half.
Remove all tinsel, ornaments, plastic bags and stands.
Christmas trees buried in, on top of or behind snow banks may not get collected - ensure tree is fully accessible for collection.
For easy identification by the collection contractor, clearly separate each waste stream (i.e. leaf and yard, recycling) at the curb. Do not place collectible materials on the road, as it may pose a hazard to vehicular traffic.

Forgot to put your Christmas Tree out for Collection?
If you missed your Christmas tree collection, you can take your Christmas tree to York Region's Compost Facility or wait until the start of the City’s spring leaf and yard waste collection program.
