Munich Christmas Tree Sales Points for 2025
In the festive spirit of Bavaria, where Christmas trees are traditionally left up until almost a month later, Munich offers a variety of locations to purchase or rent your perfect holiday tree. Here's a list of street names with Christmas tree sales points, prices, and disposal information for 2025.
Christmas Tree Sales and Prices
Rent or buy Christmas trees in Munich at sales locations such as Thalkirchen and Sax (Glockenbachviertel). These places offer both organic and conventional trees, as well as live trees in pots. Trees are sourced from Werner Wesslau near Rosenheim. Rental prices for potted trees range from about 70 to 105 euros depending on size. Another option near Munich is the Schwanenland nursery in Zorneding (near Ebersberg), where potted Christmas trees cost between 48 and 70 euros plus delivery and collection fees if needed.
Disposal Process
After Christmas, you can dispose of your tree through Munich's waste collection system. Trees are typically collected in January for recycling. Residents should follow the local waste collection calendar (Abfuhrkalender) for exact pickup dates and place their tree on the curb for collection. The trees go into biodegradable waste processing to produce compost or biogas.
Additional Context
Buying live potted trees allows sustainable reuse, as rented trees are often replanted after the holiday season in areas around Munich, such as near Lake Tegernsee. For convenience and eco-friendly disposal tips, Munich supports comprehensive recycling programs, emphasizing correct sorting of biodegradable waste in brown bins.
The Christmas markets in Munich, including the Christkindlmarkt at Marienplatz (Nov 24–Dec 24, 2025) and the Medieval Market at Wittelsbacherplatz (Nov 24–Dec 23, 2025), are also good places to learn about local festive traditions and sometimes find tree sales or advice.
