The City of Oshawa announced it it’s curbside Christmas tree collection program is now open for registration. Residents must sign up by January 8, to have their trees collected.
Once registered, curbside tree collection will occur during the week of January 13. Tree collection may not coincide with your waste collection day. All Christmas trees will be collected no later than January 17.
Reminders and requirements:
- Place your tree at the curb no later than January 13, at 7 am, regardless of your waste collection day.
- Trees longer than 1.8 m (6 feet) must be cut in half so they fit in the truck.
- Please do not place trees at the curb in advance of the designated collection week to ensure trees do not become stuck or frozen in snow banks or blown down the street.
- Because the trees are composted, they must be free of tinsel, decorations, lights, stands and plastic tree bags.
Registering your address helps the city plan more efficient collection routes, saving costs and reducing emissions.
