Concord residents with curbside trash and recycling collection can place their Christmas trees curbside for disposal on their trash collection day starting on Tuesday, Jan. 2.

Christmas trees will be collected for two weeks through Friday, Jan. 12. Due to the New Year’s Day holiday on Monday, trash and tree collection will be delayed by one day throughout the first week.

Trees must be placed at the curb with residential trash and recycling by 7 a.m. to not miss collection. All lights, ornaments, tinsel, and decorations must be completely removed from the tree. Wreaths and artificial trees will not be collected. Trees will be collected with a separate truck from trash and recycling, so items may be collected at different times.
