PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY - Debris from your private or commercial business property that you can get to the right-of-way (next to the roadway without obstructing traffic, garbage cans, mailboxes or utility structures) is being picked up in all areas of the county on an ongoing basis.
For public right-of-way debris removal, please have your storm debris out on the public right-of-way by March 1, 2025. Trucks will be making final passes and getting your debris out by this date guarantees it will be picked up.
If you miss this deadline or need help with removing debris, free debris removal is available though the Private Property Debris Removal Program.
PRIVATE PROPERTY DEBRIS REMOVAL - Owners who cannot take debris from their private or commercial business property to the right-of-way for pickup may apply to have qualified disaster debris removed from their property for FREE.
