Christmas Trees

Once again Hillsborough County residential solid waste collection customers will have two options to recycle their live Christmas trees this year-curbside collection or self delivery to a County Yard Waste Processing Facility. Here's what you need to do:

Curbside Collection: Remove all tinsel and ornaments. Cut your tree into four-foot (4') sections and place out on your normal yard waste collection service day.

Self-Delivery: Remove all tinsel and ornaments and deliver your tree to the nearest County Yard Waste Processing Facility. Bring a copy of your property tax bill which lists the Solid Waste Disposal Assessment and some form of identification.
