Christmas trees cannot be disposed of through curbside pick-up. Hamilton residents may recycle their trees by dropping them off at the designated recycling location. Access the drop-off point via the rear Patton Park Access Road from Asbury Street and proceed to the end of the lane. We extend our gratitude to Iron Tree Services for generously donating their chipping services to support the tree recycling effort and Brick End Farm for composting. Learn more.
