Bremen's municipal waste disposal service collects Christmas trees on separate dates in January. You can find the dates in your waste calendar. If you are not there on your collection day or you want to leave your Christmas tree for longer, you can also drop off your Christmas tree free of charge at the recycling stations. Please remove any tree decorations such as tinsel or Christmas tree baubles in advance.

								    

									    Requirements
  • The delivery of waste and recyclable materials is only permitted with vehicles with a permissible total weight of up to 3.5 tons.
  • All tree decorations such as tinsel or Christmas tree baubles must be removed beforehand.
  • The Christmas tree comes from a private household that is connected to the municipal waste disposal system.
