Now that Hurricane Francine has passed and citizens are cleaning their properties, it’s important to know how to separate your debris for curbside pickup.
Separate debris into different piles:
- Household trash
- Vegetative debris – DO NOT BAG!
- Construction and demolition debris
- Appliances and white goods
- Electronics
- Household hazardous wastes
Things to remember:
- Keep debris out of the roadway and out of the line of sight for motorists.
- Do not bag your vegetative debris. Put all leaves and branches in a pile at the curb.
- Do not place debris in ditches because this could lead to flooding during rain, nor should it be placed on street corners because this could cause line-of-sight issues.
- Do not mix non-storm-related yard waste or bulk trash with storm debris.
