Note: The Christmas Tree collection sites have closed for the season. This information is provided purely for information purposes only. Depositing a tree a site at this time is illegal dumping, punishable by fine and imprisonment.

Note: Christmas trees will not be collected at the curb, as was reported in Wasteline.

At most Omaha sites, there will be volunteers to help you unload your tree during the dates and times listed. If you drop off your tree at another time, please throw your tree up on the pile. This will leave room for others to access the site.

You may begin using the sites on December 23. The sites are open daily, but staffed with volunteers only on the days listed. Sites close on January 14, 2008.
