SOLID WASTE

Today and tomorrow, residential and commercial trash, yard waste and recycling pick up is operating as normal.

The city will suspend residential and commercial garbage, recycling and yard waste pick up starting Wednesday at 12 p.m., this depends on the operations of the Orange County Landfill and weather conditions.

Following Hurricane Milton, depending on weather and road conditions, the city will work to pick up missed garbage and yard waste. We will continue to provide updates throughout the storm on garbage, yard and recycling schedules.

PRE-STORM PREPARATION - YARD DEBRIS

Help us prevent flooding by removing tree trimmings or any type of loose waste or yard debris from the curb. During a severe weather event, these items can clog storm drains which may result in flooding of property and/or the street. Residents should secure any yard waste or debris that has not been picked up by Wednesday morning.

Follow these tips in securing your yard:
* Bundle yard waste following the "Think 4" rule (https://www.orlando.gov/yardwaste?mc_cid=4e4cf69650&mc_eid=UNIQID)
* Yard waste should not be placed on top of or in front of storm drains
* As you clean up your yards help prevent future flooding, don’t blow leaves or grass into the street
* If waste has not been removed by crews prior to the storm, please secure it against your home. Yard waste left at the curb can wash into storm drains and cause flooding.

HELPING THE HOMELESS

The Homeless Services Network is working with the homeless shelters in our area who will add service beyond their typical capacity to serve homeless individuals who are seeking refuge during Hurricane Milton.

The city’s Downtown Ambassadors and HOPE Team Outreach partners are out today on the streets providing weather information and directing people to shelters and will continue these efforts as long as it is safe to do so.
