Christmas Tree Pickup
Geneva residents will have several opportunities to dispose of their live Christmas trees during January.
Trees will be picked up for free on residents’ garbage days during the weeks of Jan. 2 and Jan. 9 by LRS (Lakeshore Recycling Systems), the City’s waste hauler. No refuse stickers are necessary during this timeframe.
Trees discarded after the first two weeks of January will require one Geneva refuse sticker.
People must place their live trees out with their garbage no later than 7 a.m. on their scheduled day. Ornaments, hooks, nails, tinsel, garland, tree stands, and other hard materials should be removed from the trees prior to disposal. Trees placed in bags will not be accepted.
All wreaths and roping must be discarded in the trash.
