Christmas Tree Collection

January 5–16, 2026

Please remove tinsel, ornaments, and tree bags and set your tree out on the boulevard by 7 a.m. on January 5, 2026. This collection does not coincide with your trash pick–up schedule.

If you would like to drop off your Christmas tree, that option is available. You may drop them off at 2000 Marco Drive, Monday–Friday between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m., and place them in a pile south of the yard waste site, next to the green recycling dumpster. Myrick Park is no longer available for tree drop-off.

Just a reminder, when the Yard Waste & Brush Site is closed for the season, you may not drop off other materials; those items should be taken to the County Landfill, (608) 785–9572.

Artificial Christmas Trees, Wreaths, & Holiday Lights

We do not collect artificial Christmas trees; those, along with holiday lights, can be placed in your city-service recycling cart or dropped off at Harter’s Quick Clean-Up. Live and artificial wreaths cannot be collected due to the metal used to form them; they would be considered trash and can be placed in the garbage cart.
