Christmas Tree Roundup

Beginning January 5 and ending January 13, the City is offering two ways for you to dispose of your unwanted live Christmas trees or wreaths.

1. You can drop off your tree right here in Grayhawk at Thompson Peak Park (Thompson Peak Parkway and Hayden Road - in the NE parking lot). The City of Scottsdale will provide roll-off containers that are yellow in color and labeled for your disposal convenience.

2. Single-family home residents can place Christmas trees in your curbside green waste pile, separate from your bulk trash, for collection in your scheduled Brush/Bulk service week. Please remember if you utilize this option your tree must remain in your home or behind your gate until it is time for bulk pickup service, which is the week of January 21.
