  • Trees will be collected curbside, but not from alleys.
  • Make sure you've stripped all decorations, lights and tree stands from the tree.

This pick-up is for people who reside in homes, the release states.

However, apartment and condominium residents should ask their property manager how the property recycles or dispose of trees, it states.
