How to Dispose of Christmas Tree in Detroit, MI

Use paper bags only (no plastic); twigs ≤2 inches may go in bags; branches ≤4 feet and ≤4 inches diameter, bundled, ≤60 lb; keep piles about 6 feet from carts. Season for 2026 is roughly March 31–December 19. Free yard-waste drop-offs include Southfield Yard (12255 Southfield Service Dr), Davison Yard (8221 W Davison), and J. Fons (6451 E McNichols).
