Christmas Tree Collection

Montclair Township is still collecting Christmas trees until the end of January. Place all trees on the curb for pickup. All decorations, lights, metal tinsel, ornament wires and nails and plastic bags must be removed from the tree before placing it at the curb. 

Wreaths will be collected with the regular garbage collection. 

Do not place trees on the curb if snow is falling. Trees buried under snow will not be collected. If a tree becomes buried under snow it will become the responsibility of the resident to dig out the tree.
