Storm Debris Collection from Hurricanes Helene and Milton will resume next week, no later than Tuesday, October 15 or Wednesday, October 16. Contract haulers are returning to the area after being evacuated outside of Florida prior to the arrival of Hurricane Milton.
City residents are encouraged to assist with efficient collection of hurricane debris by segregating piles at the curb as much as possible (i.e.: construction debris, vegetation, white goods [appliances], and household hazardous waste [paint cans, cleaning supplies, etc.)
Collections will focus on the most impacted areas first. Notifications will be available via social media posts, City website updates, DunediNEWS and Variable Message Board (VMB) signs placed along certain roadways.
Everyone’s patience and understanding are greatly appreciated as we diligently work to clear volume levels of debris resulting from two back-to-back hurricane events impacting our area. City staff have been working non-stop for several weeks, and are doing everything they can to provide relief and assistance to our residents. City personnel and equipment continue to support these debris collection efforts, as well as addressing life safety activities such as: production of water, road clearing, repairs to critical infrastructure, etc.
