As part of the City of Batavia’s refuse contract, Waste Management picks up live Christmas trees on residents’ regular collection dates for two weeks after Christmas. Residents do not have to use a sticker for Christmas tree removal for these weeks only: Weeks of December 25, 2023, and January 1, 2024. After these dates, residents should attach a refuse sticker to the tree and place it at the curb on their regular collection date. All materials such as plastic bags, ornaments, lights, nails, etc. should be removed from the trees. Live wreaths and garland should be placed in your regular refuse.
