Christmas Tree Curbside Collection Beginning Week of January 7th and Through the Week of January 14th  

The City of Lansing will collect Christmas trees beginning the week of January 7th and will continue through the week of January 14th, 2019.  
 
Trees should be placed curbside on the same day that blue trash bags, blue trash carts and green recycling carts are collected. They should be free of plastic bags, metal, and ornaments. TREES 6-FEET IN LENGTH OR LONGER MUST BE CUT IN HALF.

To assist in the collection process in the event of snow, residents are encouraged to place holiday trees on top of snow banks, and to remove as much snow as possible from the trees, so City drivers can see them.
 
Only trees will be accepted during this time. Leaves and other yard waste materials will not be accepted.
