City of Geneva offices will be closed Wednesday and Thursday, Dec. 24-25; and Thursday, Jan. 1, in observance of the Christmas and New Year’s Day holidays.

Geneva’s garbage and recycling collection will be delayed by one day during the holiday weeks. Refuse will be picked up as follows:

• Week of Dec. 22 – Friday-Saturday
• Week of Dec. 29 – Friday-Saturday
• Week of Jan. 5 – Thursday-Friday (regular schedule)

Christmas Tree Pickup

Geneva residents will have several opportunities to dispose of live Christmas trees in January.

Trees will be picked up for free on residents’ garbage days during the weeks of Dec. 29 and Jan. 5 by LRS, the City’s waste hauler. No waste stickers are necessary during this period.

Trees discarded after the first two weeks of January will require one Geneva waste sticker.

Residents must place their live trees out with their garbage no later than 7 a.m. on their scheduled pickup day. Ornaments, hooks, nails, tinsel, garland, tree stands, and other hard materials should be removed prior to disposal. Trees placed in bags will not be accepted.

All wreaths and roping must be discarded in the trash.
