The City of Laurel will be collecting live Christmas trees for recycling on Wednesdays during the month of January.  While you are not required to call the city to request a tree pickup, doing so is recommended to ensure your tree is not missed.  To prepare your tree for pickup please do the following:

• Remove all decorations, lights, wires, tree skirts, stands and nails
• Do not use plastic snow or spray-on fake snow on your tree.  Trees with fake snow cannot be collected for recycling and will require a Bulky Item pickup to be scheduled.
• Avoid using plastic tree bags.  Re-use an old sheet or blanket instead.  If you do use a plastic tree bag or plastic tarp it will not be collected with the tree. 
• Place tree at the curb by 7 AM Wednesday morning for pickup. 
• Trees inside of plastic bags will not be accepted.
