Algonquin Collects Christmas Trees Curbside Through Friday

Do you still have a Christmas Tree that needs to be disposed of? The village of Algonquin's Waste Management Department will pick up trees curbside through Friday.

Algonquin's Waste Management will collect Christmas trees at no charge on your normal collection day through January 18.

In order for a tree to be collected, it must be placed at the curb or the edge of the road by 7:00 a.m. on collection day.

All lights and decorations must be removed. Trees should not be placed in plastic bags, and any trees over six (6) feet tall should be cut in half so one person can handle them. Also, trees should be placed on top of the snow.

Trees buried under snow could result in Waste Management not collecting them. Please contact Waste Management Customer Service at 1-800-796-9696 with any refuse or recycling inquiries.
