Treecycle Reminder

The City of Regina reminds residents that they have until 5:30 p.m. on Monday, January 31 to Treecycle their real trees for free at the Yard Waste Depot before it closes for the season.

The Yard Waste Depot is currently open Monday to Saturday, from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. for the Treecycle program.

Please remember to remove all tinsel, decorations and ornaments from your tree. If you transport the tree in a plastic bag, please remove the bag at the Depot and drop it in the garbage bin on site.

Thank you to those residents who have already dropped off their trees to be composted. In the spring, that compost will be offered to residents at no charge. Details on the Compost Giveaway will be provided in the coming months.

The Treecycle program helps to divert this valuable material from the landfill. Visit Regina.ca/waste for more information.

Did you know? In 2021, approximately 43 tonnes of trees were turned into compost. That’s a 38.5 per cent increase from last season!
