Green background with the words "Curbside Christmas Tree Collection. Register your address by Thursday, Jan. 5. Oshawa logo

With the holidays fast approaching, registration for the City of Oshawa’s curbside Christmas Tree collection in now open. Register at www.oshawa.ca/treecollection and scratch this task off your holiday to-do list.

Residents are asked to register their address by Thursday, January 5, 2023 in order to receive curbside collection of their Christmas tree. Residents can register by visiting www.oshawa.ca/treecollection or by calling Service Oshawa at 905-436-3311.

Once registered, residents will receive curbside collection of Christmas trees during the week of January 9-13. Tree collection may not coincide with your waste collection day. All Christmas trees will be collected no later than Friday, January 13.

Tree collection reminders and requirements:

  • Place your tree at the curb no later than Monday, January 9 at 7:00 a.m., regardless of your waste collection day.
  • Trees longer than 1.8 m (6 feet) must be cut in half so that they fit in the truck.
  • Please do not place trees at the curb in advance of the designated collection week to ensure trees do not become stuck or frozen in snow banks or blown down the street.
  • Because the trees are composted, it is important to remove tinsel, decorations, lights, stands and plastic tree bags.

Registering your address for Christmas tree collection helps the City plan more efficient collection routes by eliminating the need to drive every street resulting in cost savings and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

For changes to waste collection schedules during the holidays and collection reminders download the Durham Waste App. For updates on the City of Oshawa, visit www.oshawa.ca and sign up for news, alerts and e-newsletters.
