Where to put the Christmas tree? The best tips for Hamelin’s citizens!
January 3, 2026 brings with it a question for many in Hameln: What to do with the Christmas tree after the holidays? After all, this grin in the living room shouldn't last forever, and the city has responded to the needs of its citizens.
There are various options available in Hameln to dispose of old Christmas trees in an environmentally friendly way. The city administration has stipulated that the trees can be dropped off by citizens at the designated collection points. These roof hiking locations are scattered throughout Hameln and make it easier to get rid of the tree without having to travel long distances. The exact locations can be found on the city's official website.
This is how the delivery works
To make the process as easy as possible, the collection points are marked accordingly. Citizens are asked to return the trees in their natural state - without any decorations or plastic residue. This helps make disposal environmentally friendly and simplifies the recycling process.
The city offers a pick-up service for anyone who cannot drop off their Christmas trees themselves. However, prior registration is required for this. Registrations for this will be possible in the next few days, so that busy families will also be relieved.

Whether disposing of the Christmas tree or surfing the Internet - in both real and digital life, current developments show how important it is to act actively and informed.
Further information about the Christmas tree collection points can be found on the city of Hameln website and in the relevant publications. If the topic of data protection is of interest to you, the article on datenschutz-generator.de offers helpful tips and legal background information.
