The DC Department of Public Works (DPW) will collect holiday trees and greenery January 3 through March 2 from DPW-serviced households, which includes single-family homes and apartment dwellings with three or fewer units.
Here is what you need to know about this year’s holiday tree and greenery collection:

Monday through Friday, 8 AM – 4 PM:- 201 Bryant St. NW (Roll off box)
