Christmas Tree Recycling & Green Waste: Your Guide for Vancouver & Suburbs

January 21, 2026

The festive season brings warmth, joy, and the scent of fresh evergreens into our homes. As you wrap up the holidays in Vancouver and surrounding communities, it’s crucial to think about responsible Christmas tree disposal and green waste recycling. Instead of letting trees and leftover holiday greenery end up in landfills, discover eco-friendly solutions tailored to our local area—and learn how Bin There Disposal Services Ltd can make the process simple and sustainable.

Why Christmas Tree Recycling Matters in Metro Vancouver

Disposing of your natural Christmas tree correctly is more than a chore; it’s an opportunity to reduce landfill waste and give back to the environment. Every year, thousands of Christmas trees and bags of holiday greenery are discarded across Metro Vancouver, including North Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam, Richmond, Surrey, and beyond.

By recycling your tree and green waste, you help divert organic material from landfill sites, create nutrient-rich mulch for local parks, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Many Lower Mainland municipalities and local charities offer tree chipping or pick-up events in January, but not all accept large volumes or mixed types of green waste.

Options for Christmas Tree and Green Waste Recycling

Residents of Vancouver and its suburbs have several choices when it comes to responsible tree and green waste disposal:

Municipal Curbside Programs

Most cities including Vancouver, Burnaby, and Richmond offer curbside pickup for Christmas trees during designated January weeks. Check your local city website for collection dates and set out your undecorated tree for pickup.

Community Tree Chipping Events

Local fire halls and community groups frequently host “tree chipping” fundraisers in January. You can drop off your tree, support a good cause, and know it will be recycled into mulch for community spaces.

Private Green Waste Disposal and Bin Rentals

Homeowners in areas like Coquitlam, Langley, or West Vancouver often have extra green waste after the holidays—think Christmas wreaths, garlands, and yard cleanup debris. Bin There Disposal Services Ltd provides flexible green waste bins and dumpster rentals, ideal for larger loads or post-holiday yard projects.

What Can Go in a Green Waste Bin?

When renting a green waste disposal bin from Bin There Disposal Services Ltd, ensure you include only accepted organic materials for recycling.

Here’s what you CAN place in your green waste bin:

Christmas trees (free of tinsel, lights, ornaments, and flocking)
Holiday wreaths and garlands (no plastic frames or wire)
Branches, shrubs, and garden trimmings
Leaves, grass clippings, and non-invasive plants

Please avoid placing plastics, metals, artificial trees, or household garbage with your green waste. Our team ensures the waste diverted from your property is recycled responsibly and in compliance with local regulations.
