Will you be the one lucky survey participant to win $500? | Graphic by 6AM City

Happy New Year, San Diegans. To start the year off on the right foot, we need a little help from you.

Every morning, more than 40,000 of you welcome us into your inbox. And each day, we do our very best to provide you with timely, relevant information so you can get the most out of the city we call home.

We’re asking you to take two minutes to tell us a little more about yourself because the more we know about who you are, the better we can deliver information that you care about. Just two minutes. Feel free to skip any questions you don’t want to answer. We don’t want to pry. (Okay, we do, but for a good reason.)

We’ll be selecting one lucky survey participant to win $500. We’re rooting for you, SD.

Thanks in advance for your feedback,

— Michael + Monica

How to dispose of Christmas trees and holiday decorations in San Diego

Hello, 2024. Now that the holidays have wrapped, you’re probably starting to undeck the halls. We’ve gathered info on how to safely dispose of your holiday decor in San Diego.

🌲 Curbside tree pickup

If you’re a county resident who receives yard waste collection, you might be able to have your real Christmas tree picked up during certain time frames, depending on where you live. Prepare your tree by removing all decorations and lights; if you can, cut it in half.

If you have a green bin, you can also cut your real Christmas tree to fit into the container and have it picked up as yard waste.

If you have an artificial tree, it can only be disposed through regular trash service; it must fit into the trash bin with the lid closed for proper collection.

Pro tip: If your artificial tree is in good shape, consider donating it to a local nonprofit.

Curbside drop-offs + recycling packaging
