Orange County has extended access to its residential debris drop-off sites for debris following Hurricane Milton.
The three designated sites now will be open an additional week, through 7 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 27.
The sites will continue to accept non-commercial yard waste, including leaves, branches and other natural debris. The sites will accept only loose vegetative debris — no bags or containers. Large appliances and other household items will not be accepted. Contractors, lawn care or commercial companies are prohibited from using the sites.
The three sites are: Conway Water Treatment Plant, 3590 Manatee St., Orlando; Harrell Road, 8503 Trevarthon Road, Orlando; and Zellwood Maintenance Unit, 3500 Golden Gem Road, Apopka.
The sites are open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Upon arrival at the sites, 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.
Orange County also is continuing its storm curbside debris removal for unincorporated areas.
Contractors are collecting 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, large household appliances, other household items, etc. — and place it at the curb for collection as soon as possible.
