Concord residents with curbside trash and recycling collection can place their Christmas trees curbside for disposal on their trash collection day through Friday, Jan. 12.

Many other communities also collect Christmas trees. Bow residents, for example, can drop them off at the Public Works Facility, 12 Robinson Road, any time through Monday, Jan. 15.

Check with your local public works department to see if similar services are offered in your town.

In Concord, trees must be placed at the curb with residential trash and recycling by 7 a.m. to not miss collection. All lights, ornaments, tinsel, and decorations must be completely removed from the tree. Wreaths and artificial trees will not be collected.

Trees will be collected with a separate truck from trash and recycling, so items may be collected at different times.

Due to the New Year’s Day holiday on Monday, trash and tree collection will be delayed by one day this week.

Concord residents can also bring trees to the Concord Transfer Station at 77 Old Turnpike Road for free during January. Transfer station hours are Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
