Iowa City curbside customers can bring natural, unflocked holiday trees to the curb for collection at 7 a.m. on their normal pickup day. A yard waste stick is not required. Remove all decorations first, and do not place your tree in a plastic bag. For more information, visit https://www.icgov.org/curbside.

Johnson County residents who do not have curbside composting can bring natural, unflocked trees to the Iowa City Landfill's Compost Facility. There is a $5 minimum fee to compost loads weighing under 400 pounds. The landfill is open Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to noon.

Artificial holiday trees can be reused or donated to a local secondhand store if still usable. If artificial trees are past their use, they are considered trash. Iowa City curbside customers can schedule a bulky item pickup to have them collected at the curb, or Johnson County residents can transport them directly to the landfill to be disposed of.
