The City will provide Christmas tree drop-off sites from Christmas Day through Tuesday, January 21 at these locations:

  • Ballard Park, 3901 North 66th Street

All decorations, tinsel, lights, skirts, disposal bags and stands must be removed from trees. This is the 33rd year for the City’s tree drop-off service, the oldest program of its kind in the state. The effort is a collaboration between the Solid Waste Operations Division of the Transportation and Utilities Department and the Parks and Recreation Department.

Pick up dates are December 28, 29 and January 1, 4, 5 and 11, offered in these zip code areas: 68502 through 68508, 68510, 68512, 68516, 68521, 68522 and 68526.
