The City of Kirkland offers the following “tree-cycling” tips and a reminder about garbage and recycling collection in case of inclement weather:

Free Curbside pickup by Waste Management, Inc.

Whole, unflocked trees will be collected from Tuesday, Jan. 3 to Friday, Jan. 13, by Waste Management at no additional costs. Please remove all tinsel and lights from the tree.

For residents with curbside waste collection, place your tree next to your grey yard waste cart on your regular collection day. For residents in apartments and condos, place your tree next to your garbage cart(s) or dumpster(s).

Holiday Tree-Cycling Options

Boy Scout Troop 570 will be collecting and recycling Christmas trees on Jan. 7-8 for a suggested donation of $15. Christmas tree pick up is available in parts of Juanita, Norkirk, and Highlands or there is a tree drop off site at McAuliffe Park.

For more information, visit the Boy Scout Troop 570 website.

Reminder in case of inclement weather

If Waste Management does not collect your garbage, recycled materials, or yard waste on a day of inclement weather, please remove your carts from the sidewalk or street. The following week, Waste Management will collect two weeks’ worth of materials at no extra cost.
