San Juan Capistrano and nearby communities on our route

On Los Rios Street, the Montanez Adobe has stood since 1794, one of three adobes left on a street that has been a National Register historic district since 1983. Most of San Juan Capistrano is younger than that, but the town keeps its village feel, with horse trails, hillside lots and a downtown built around the Mission. We offer Christmas tree delivery in San Juan Capistrano for homes of every age, from board and batten cottages to houses on graded hillside pads.

Noble Fir or Fraser Fir, the price only changes with height. A 6 ft tree is $465, an 8 ft tree is $589, tax is added at checkout, and the price already covers delivery, setup in the room you choose, the stand we lend you and January pickup. The crew, typically two people, brings the tree inside, settles it in the stand, gets it straight, gives it a once over and sweeps up after themselves. Lights and ornaments are your department, so pick your tree and date and save the fun part for later.

Neighborhoods

Old streets, horse country and hillside lots

  • Los Rios Historic District

    Board and batten cottages and three surviving adobes along Los Rios Street. Older doorways can be narrow, so measure before choosing the 8 ft tree.

  • Mission District

    The downtown blocks around the Mission at 26801 Old Mission Road. Expect extra traffic on Capistrano Lights evenings in late December.

  • Hunt Club

    Lots step up a hillside off Ortega Highway, with equestrian easements running through the tract. Tell us about a steep driveway or front steps.

  • McCracken Hill

    Large lots at the end of Forster Ranch Road, where deed restrictions allow only single story or split level homes.

    Single family homes on compact lots, with a homeowners association that brought its own specific plan to the city in 2007.

Christmas tree delivery in San Juan Capistrano, old homes and new

Historic homes and tight doorways

In Los Rios and the older streets near the Mission, a home can have a low doorway, a narrow hall or a living room smaller than a modern floor plan. Measure the door you'll use and the ceiling above the tree's spot. An 8 ft ceiling takes our 6 ft tree with about a foot to spare for the stand and a topper.

Hillside streets with few lights

The city's design rules keep street lights to a minimum in hillside neighborhoods, mostly at intersections, curves and the ends of cul de sacs. If your house number is hard to see from the street, mention it at checkout and add a landmark, a mailbox or a door color. It saves the crew a slow lap of the block.

Horse properties and second gates

San Juan Capistrano is known as an equestrian destination, with a large concentration of horses, stables and riding facilities. Some properties have a second gate, a long drive or a barn between the street and the house. Tell us which gate to use, any code, and where the truck can park without spooking anyone.

The local season

Capistrano Lights at the Mission and your tree at home

Mission San Juan Capistrano brings back Capistrano Lights on select days from December 18 to December 30, 2026. The program includes a tree lighting and music at 5:05 pm, a full scale nativity, and a light show projected on the ruins of the Great Stone Church at 6:15 pm. The Mission is closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

By then the swallows have been gone for nearly two months, having left around October 23 as tradition holds. If you want your tree decorated before the light show starts, choose a delivery date with room to spare, then keep the stand full of water from the first day.

January

January Christmas tree pickup around town

Come January, the crew is back during the pickup window for the tree, stripped of decorations, and for the loaned stand. Take down every light and ornament first, because the crew doesn't remove decorations. If you live behind a property gate or on a horse property, leave the same access notes you gave in December so the crew finds the right driveway. After that, disposal is our job, with the tree recycled as green waste anywhere that's possible. Read how pickup works.

How pickup works

Before we come back

  • All lights, ornaments and hooks off
  • Tinsel, garland and tree skirt off
  • Gate or guest list updated for pickup day

Questions

San Juan Capistrano Christmas tree delivery questions

Do you deliver to homes in the Los Rios Historic District?

Yes, Los Rios Street gets the same delivery and setup as anywhere else in town. If your cottage has a low ceiling or a narrow front door, measure both before you order; an 8 ft ceiling suits our 6 ft tree, and a tight doorway is easier with the smaller size. Note any parking limits nearby at checkout.

Which size fits a single story or split level home on McCracken Hill?

Go by the ceiling height in the tree's room, not the style of the house. In a split level, the main room can be half a flight above or below the front door, so measure in that room itself. Around 10 ft suits our 8 ft tree, and a vaulted room can special order something taller.

Do you deliver to Sendero, Esencia and Rienda?

Yes. Those Rancho Mission Viejo villages are on our route, and our Ladera Ranch page covers them in more detail, including gated neighborhoods and brand new streets in Rienda. The trees, sizes and January pickup are the same as here in town.

Do you serve Dana Point and San Clemente as well?

Yes, both coastal cities are on our route and have their own pages with local notes. The service is identical: your choice of Noble or Fraser, 6 ft or 8 ft, carried in and set in a loaned stand, then picked up in January. Taller trees are a special order there too.

A real tree for your San Juan Capistrano home, delivered and set up.

Two trees, two sizes, one price that covers delivery, setup and January pickup. Pick your date and we take it from there.
