Lawrence residents may place live-cut trees at the curb or alley for recycling beginning Jan. 3.

Trees need to be put out by by 6:00 a.m. on residents assigned trash pickup day. City crews will pick up trees for recycling Jan. 3-6. In addition, collection crews will run through all city neighborhoods Jan. 9 to collect any remaining trees.

Christmas trees will be collected separate from trash and will be used for wildlife habitat. The city asks that residents remove all artificial items from trees, including tinsel, lights, ornaments and tree stands.
