VEGETATIVE DEBRIS DROP-OFF
Beginning Monday, Oct. 14, designated drop-off sites will accept non-commercial yard waste, including leaves, branches and other natural debris. The sites will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.
The three sites are:
• Conway Water Treatment Plant – 3590 Manatee St., Orlando
• Harrell Road – 8503 Trevarthon Road, Orlando
• Zellwood Maintenance Unit – 3500 Golden Gem Road, Apopka.
The sites will accept only loose vegetative debris — no bags or containers. White goods (large household appliances) and other household items will not be accepted. Contractors, lawn care or commercial companies are prohibited from using these drop-off sites.
Upon arrival, residents must present a valid driver’s license, utility bill or other official document verifying Orange County residency. Residents can use the county’s interactive map to find their nearest drop-off site.
CURBSIDE DEBRIS REMOVAL
Orange County Government expects to begin its storm curbside debris removal for unincorporated Orange County by Wednesday, Oct. 16. Two debris contractors and one debris monitor will be deployed with heavy-duty equipment to consolidate and remove storm-related debris. Contractors will collect piles at the curb that are too large to be picked up through the county’s residential curbside collection program. Residents are encouraged to separate debris by type — vegetative, white goods, household items, etc. — and place it at the curb for collection as soon as possible.
