Christmas tree collection

Natural Christmas trees will be collected during the weeks of January 6-10 and 13-17. The proposed fee for 2025 of $12.01 per tree will appear on your next utility bill. To prepare your tree for pickup, remove all decorations, wires and stands. Set out before 7 a.m. on your collection day but no earlier than the day before pickup. Keep snow or ice off the tree. No plastic, compostable or other bags should be included. For collection outside these two weeks, call Utility Billing at 952-563-8726 and schedule a bulky item pickup for a fee.
