What's Happening?
Republic Services is providing Battle Creek residents with a service to dispose of fresh Christmas trees. The annual curbside pickup is available until January 23. Residents are required to remove all
lights, ornaments, and stands from the trees before placing them at the curb on their regular garbage collection day. Trees that are taller than six feet must be cut in half to be eligible for pickup. For any specific inquiries regarding the service, residents can contact the Environmental Services Division.
