The collection of live Christmas trees for recycling in Baltimore County will take place over a two-week period, beginning Monday, January 10, 2022.
Pickup dates vary by location and are not scheduled in advance; residents must place trees out by January 15 to ensure collection. Christmas trees will not necessarily be collected on your scheduled trash or recycling day—please leave trees out until collection occurs.
Residents should place trees out for pick-up at the same location where they would normally place trash and recycling for collection.
In addition, residents must follow these rules when placing their Christmas trees out to be recycled:
Residents who wish to drop off Christmas trees themselves may do so. Christmas trees (no lights, decorations, tinsel, bags, tree stands, etc.) may be taken to any one of the County’s three drop-off locations.
For directions to the County’s drop-off centers, residents may visit the Bureau of Solid Waste Management website or call 410-887-2000.
