How to dispose of your Christmas tree in the Twin Cities

Undecking your halls this January? Here's how to dispose of your tree.

State of play: St. Paul residents can leave one live Christmas tree next to their garbage bins on their collection day from Jan. 2 —Jan. 15.

• They can also drop it at one of the four Ramsey County yard waste sites for free.
• Artificial and real trees that are over 6 feet tall or heavier than 20 pounds are excluded from pick-up, but could be collected for an additional fee. Call your hauler.
