The Courtenay Volunteer Fire Department is holding their annual Christmas Tree Collection and Chipping fundraiser on Saturday and Sunday, January 7 and 8, 2023 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Drop off your tree at the Courtenay Fire Hall on Cumberland Road, or in front of Thrifty Foods on Lerwick Road.

For a minimum $5 donation, at-home pickup is also available for all areas served by the Courtenay Fire Department, including fire protection districts.

You’ll want to give them a call at (250) 334-2513 ahead of time for pick-up.

Natural Christmas trees are also collected through the City’s curbside collection and yard waste/organics program.

Trees must be cut in half (3 foot lengths max. per piece) with all decorations, tree stands, and any plastics removed prior to collection.
