How to Dispose of Your Christmas Tree in Phoenixville

PHOENIXVILLE, PA -- Wondering what to do with that Christmas tree once the holidays are over?

Here's a look at how to get rid of your Christmas tree in Phoenixville and the surrounding municipalities.

Phoenixville Borough

According to Borough Manager Jean Krack, trees, which should be free of decorations and tinsel, will be picked up curbside on residents' regular trash days through the month of January.

The trees will be taken to the borough's compost site.

East Pikeland Township

The following information comes from the East Pikeland Township website.

The public works crew will pick up trees curbside from now through Jan. 20, or residents can bring ornament- and tinsel-free trees to the Yard Waste Recycling Center on Rapps Dam Road from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Don't wrap the tree in plastic, and don't place the tree curbside on your trash pick-up day.

Thanks to the compost site in the township, you can recycle your tree. Take undecorated trees to the township building during regular hours, or stop by the compost site on Longford Road between now and Jan. 31 to have your tree recycled. It's an eco-friendly option for your tree disposal needs.
