Berlin’s Christmas tree pickup starts January 10 with staggered district dates

Berlin’s annual Christmas tree collection will begin on January 10, 2026. The Berliner Stadtreinigung (BSR) has set dates for residents to dispose of their natural trees. Most collections will take place over two weeks, with exact timings varying by district.

The BSR has scheduled collections between January 10 and January 24, 2026. However, not all districts will be serviced on the same day. Some areas may have pickups as early as January 6 or 8, while others will follow later in the month. For precise dates, residents should check the BSR’s digital calendar or local street schedules.

The two-week collection period aims to clear trees efficiently across Berlin. Residents must follow the guidelines to avoid missed pickups. Further details are available through the BSR’s online tools and local announcements.
