The Borough of Tamaqua Street Department will be collecting Christmas Trees throughout the month of January. Residents should place their trees at the curb for pickup on their garbage collection day. The Street Department will check each street on garbage days and collect trees as time and weather permits. Christmas Trees should not be placed in bags and must be free of tinsel and other decorations. Trees will not be collected after January 31, 2014. Residents can also drop off trees behind the Tamaqua Borough Garage at 421 Rear East Broad Street.
