Christmas Tree Collection

Christmas tree collection will occur from January 2 - 16, 2024. 

Program details: 

• Trees will be collected on your weekly trash collection day. Note: trash collection will be delayed by 1 day during the week of New Year's Day. 
• Trees must be completely bare to be eligible for collection and recycling.
  • Remove all ornaments, lights, tinsel and the tree stand.
  • Do not bag trees in plastic.
  • Trees taller than 6 feet must be cut in half.
  • Flocked trees cannot be recycled; therefore they must be placed in the Mixed Waste Cart.
• On collection day, place your tree on the ground next to your trash containers.

Trees are recycled into renewable natural gas, which is used to fuel CR&R's collection fleet, and nutrient-rich compost that is distributed to residents at our annual Compost Giveaway event.

To report a missed tree pickup, please contact CR&R at (949) 646-4617, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., or submit an online request.
