With Hudson's Merry Mulch Program, residents can set their live Christmas trees by the curb for the City to pick up and process into a natural mulch product. The program begins the week of January 4 and the last round of pick up begins January 20. To participate, trees should be placed at the curb no later than the Sunday of your scheduled pick up week. This will ensure your tree is picked up if crews are running ahead or behind schedule. Trees will be picked up throughout each week. Please read through the following details of the program. Not sure which quadrant you live in? Check the map below.
