Christmas tree pick up has begun and will continue through January 14th. Please place clean, unflocked trees at China Basin curb, next to the mews area between the Radiance & Madrone. When discarding your tree, please remove all tinsel, decorations, plastic bags, stands and lights. If your tree measures more than 6 feet tall, please cut the tree in half.
Trees will be picked up on the same days as our trash pick up days on Monday, Wednesday and Friday which means that trees must be placed on the curb on China Basin Street on Sunday afternoon, Tuesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon after 3:00PM. Please DO NOT put trees out on the morning of trash pick up as the trash is picked up before 8:00AM.
As a reminder, Christmas trees may NOT be deposited down any trash chutes and must be bagged while being transported through the building. A plastic bag is available for purchase at the front desk for $5 each.
Thank you!
