Residents of unincorporated Lee County are asked to place any remaining Hurricane Milton debris at the roadside by the end of day Sunday, Dec. 8, to prepare for final collection.
Starting Dec. 9, debris trucks will begin their final collections. Any debris placed at the right-of-way after final collection will not be picked up by the county’s contractor, which is why it’s critical for residents to take note of Sunday’s set-out date.
Please note that condominiums, apartments complexes and trailer parks are considered commercial property and will only receive one pass for debris collection in unincorporated Lee County. County officials, in partnership with the Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM), recently received a waiver from FEMA that allows the county’s hauler to complete one pass for commercial debris placed at the right of way. Commercial collection has begun and may take up to several weeks to complete. Any additional debris placed in front of condominiums, apartments and trailer parks after the county’s hauler completes its single collection will not be picked up by the county. All gated communities must have a
Right of Entry (ROE) and Indemnification form filed with the county to allow the county’s contractor to access their gated property.
