KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – Now that Christmas Day over, many people are taking down their holiday decorations, including their Christmas tree. The cities of Kalamazoo and Portage both offer an easy way to recycle those trees.
Kalamazoo residents can drop Christmas trees at the farmer’s market parking lot at 1204 Bank Street. All ornaments and decorations must be removed before dropping the tree off for recycling. Trees can be dropped off through the end of January.
In Portage, Christmas tree recycling is part of the city’s quarterly curbside brush collection. The collection begins Mondays in January and is zone dependent. Trees will be collected in each of four zones during one week in January. Trees must be placed at curbside by 7:00 a.m. on the week of pickup.
