Trees for TotsTrees for Tots is a tree collection service in Guelph, the Township of Puslinch, and the Village of Rockwood. For a suggested minimum contribution of $15, you can register your tree to be collected by one of our volunteers. Trees are collected, chipped, and returned to nature through walking trails, and other community projects.
Tax receipts are issued for $10 less than the full amount paid due to the CRA's guidelines regarding the "advantage" or "benefit" associated. In the case of our tree pickup service, the CRA considers the tree collection as an advantage folks receive in relation to their donation. Example: A $30 payment will receive a $20 donation tax receipt.
This advantage is valued at $10, which aligns with the fee charged by the City of Guelph for residents dropping off their trees at the city waste facility.
