Public Works Director Joseph Colello would like to inform Town residents that Hamden Public Works will begin curbside pick-up of Christmas trees on Monday, January 6th, 2024. Trees should be free of all wrappings, lights and decorations. Pick-up will be town-wide. Artificial trees are not included in this pickup.
All real trees are added to the brush pile at the Hamden Transfer Station and are recycled into woodchips, composting materials, and all other natural landscaping materials.
Residents can take their discarded trees, both real and artificial, to the Hamden Transfer Station at 231 Wintergreen Ave. The regularly scheduled hours are Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. – 3 p.m., as well as the first Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. – 11:45 a.m..
