Christmas Light Removal Service in Vermont
Christmas light removal service is part of every installation we do, not a separate bill. Takedown happens in January on a date we agree with you, the lights are packed and gone, and they live with us until next November.

What Christmas Light Takedown and Storage Includes
If we installed your lights, all of this is already paid for.
A takedown date you agree to.
January, on a date that suits you. Not a surprise visit, and not whenever we get around to it.
A date that can move for ice.
A roofline under ice is not somewhere to be on a ladder, so the date we agree is one that can shift if the weather turns. You are never asked to go up and help.
Lights packed and gone.
No strand left half-hanging until spring.
Storage until next November.
Your lights live with us. Nothing in your garage, attic or basement.
Back up the same way next year.
They were cut for your roof, so they go back up the same way every year.
How Our Christmas Light Takedown Works
Pick the date
Takedown is in January, on a date we agree with you. Most people want them down soon after New Year. Some keep them up to Twelfth Night.
Watch the weather
If the roof is under ice on the day, the date moves. We would rather be a few days late than on a ladder we should not be on.
Take them down
Every strand comes off, gets packed, and leaves with us. You never handle a strand.
Store them
Your lights live with us until next November. They go back up the same way, because they were made for your roof.
Why Removal Never Shows Up on a Bill
A removal-only service charges for the visit. We do not, because of how the service is set up: you lease the lights for the season and they stay ours. Taking them down and storing them is us looking after our own equipment.
That is also why there is no box of lights waiting for a decision in your garage in three years. There is no box.
What you never do:
- Get on a ladder in January
- Untangle, test or throw out a strand
- Find somewhere to keep them
- Wonder whether they will work next year

Christmas Light Removal Questions
No. Takedown in January and storage until next season are part of the price of the season. There is no second invoice.
In January, on a date we agree with you. If the roofline is under ice that day, the date moves. It is not a fixed date on purpose. When to take down Christmas lights.
They are stored with us until next November. Because they were cut for your roof, they go back up the same way the following year.
Not in the curbside bin. The wire wraps around the sorting equipment at the recycling plant. Many scrap metal yards take them, and so do some solid waste district drop-off centers do too, so check yours before you drive over. Some big-box stores run holiday trade-in programs, but they change from year to year, so call first. If we installed your lights, none of this is your problem. A dead strand is ours to replace.
