How to Dispose of Christmas Tree in Austin, TX
In Austin, christmas tree follows the same verified program pathway as yard waste. Small branches and yard trimmings go in Austin’s weekly composting collection (green cart + limited extras). Large brush (about 5–15 ft limbs) uses on-demand brush collection — up to three per year — stacked loosely at the curb. Brush is not accepted at the Recycle and Reuse Center; Hornsby Bend is the brush drop-off alternative.
Christmas Tree is listed on the Austin Yard & organics program. Same official source as the city yard & organics rules.
