How To Get Rid Of Your Christmas Tree In Waltham

WALTHAM, MA — Waltham residents have a decent buffer after Christmas before they need to take the ornaments and lights down and move the tree to the curb.

However, that deadline is approaching, slowly but surely.

Waltham provides curbside pickup of Christmas trees for three weeks following Christmas day, meaning there are two weeks left to dispose of your tree.

The city also provides drop-off locations for residents to place their Christmas trees as a secondary option, which can be found at:

• Nipper Maher Park, 65 Dartmouth St.
• Graverson Playground, 16 Pine Vale Rd.
• Cornelia Warren Field, 210 Waverly Oaks Rd.

All lights, ornaments, plastic bags and tree stands must be removed before disposing of the tree. No wreaths with metal rings can be disposed of either.
