Contractor crews are now being mobilized to assist with brush and storm debris removal.

Residents are urged to cut and set-out their brush and trees curbside but care must be taken to not block storm drains, sidewalks or driveways.

Piles must be separated into heavy brush, other debris (fences, bulky items, storm debris) and white goods (refrigerators and freezers).

Regular brush collection schedules are suspended until further notice. Initial storm collection will begin later this week to give residents time to set-out.

As a reminder, crews will not pick-up hazardous waste curbside.

Residents are encouraged to utilize the free services of the J.C. Elliott Transfer Station for debris, brush, garbage & recycle collection and household hazardous waste.

The Transfer Station is open today, Sunday, 8/27/17, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
