Dumpsters for Storm Debris Cleanup

As tempting as it is to start cleaning up storm debris right away, it's always a good idea to track the storm using real-time updates to ensure the threat is entirely gone. This includes using weather sites, TV, and radio stations. We highly recommend using The National Weather Service to stay informed.

Whether you braved the storms by staying home or evacuated to a safer location, post-storm cleanup is overwhelming, to begin with. The disposal of debris from your damaged home feels daunting and you may find yourself unsure about where to begin. Depending on the magnitude of storm damage, cleanups can take ample time and trips to the landfill. We're here to help ease that burden.

As a rule of thumb, you can put most things in a dumpster, except for hazardous materials. These typically include:

• Asbestos

• Flammables

• Chemicals or pesticides

• Dry cell batteries, lead acid batteries

• Incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs

To safely discard these materials without causing harm to people or the environment, residents can visit the US Environmental Protection Agency to learn how to clean up harmful substances that would otherwise pollute land and water when improperly disposed of.
