Recycle your holiday lights and trees The City offers free drop-off holiday light recycling from Nov. 15, 2025, through Jan. 15, 2026. Drop off your holiday lights during business hours in the bins located in the entryways of City Hall and the Community Center. City Hall: 485 Gorman St.; open weekdays 8 a.m.–4:30 p.m. Community Center: 1255 Fuller St.; open 5 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday through Friday, 6 a.m.–8 p.m. Saturdays, 8 a.m.–8 p.m. Sundays. The City’s garbage and recycling hauler, DSI, picks up Christmas trees by request during the first two full weeks of January. Christmas tree disposal is considered an “add-on” service and will cost a one-time fee. Call DSI at 952-469-2239 or email shakopee@dickssanitation .com prior to your regular service day to schedule a pickup. Trees will not be picked up if they are placed at the curb without contacting DSI.
