Debris Removal After the Storm

There are two categories of debris:

  • yard waste
  • construction / demolition materials

Yard / wood waste consists of tree limbs, tree trunks, tree stumps and various type of vegetation.

Construction / demolition debris consists of building materials such as concrete, cinder blocks, lumber, shingles, drywall, plywood, privacy fences/chain link fences and aluminum siding.

Separate Your Debris

Residents must keep debris separate from household garbage. This will help public works crews and contractors speed up removal of debris from your neighborhood.

Debris removal may take several months, but neighborhoods will be notified when trucks will be coming by.

Please note that crews will not go on private property to cut limbs and/or gather debris.
