Escambia County Still Picking Up Debris. And Marking Ineligible Piles.
December 9, 2020
Escambia County is still picking up Hurricane Sally debris, and marking ineligible piles.
As of Tuesday, there have been 75,928 loads hauled and 3,865,756 cubic yards of debris removed — enough to fill 83% of the Superdome in New Orleans.
The final set out date for Hurricane Sally debris was December 1, with a goal to finish collections by Christmas.
Ineligible piles are being marked orange. Indelible debris includes items from landscaping, land cleaning, garage cleaning, illegal dumping, debris located on private property and debris generated by businesses. The resident or business will be responsible for removal. More information is in the graphic on this page.

Thanks Willis.
I’m a senior citizen and not in the best of health I have limbs and such out on the curb but some people down the street just started cleaning up property they bought they cut bushes and down its been picked up twice they empty out the house old furniture its been picked up mine has been out since the hurricane now there is more furniture out on the curb and more limbs they cut down This is East Johnson ave in Ensley, it’s unfair for older people who can’t haul to the dump.It looks bad for people who try to clean up
This is different from previous articles about what is and is not allowed. Just confused. I guess they keep changing the rules as they want.

I had several large live oak tree branches fall into my backyard from my neighbor’s yard during Hurricane Sally.
I am a senior citizen and I did my best to cut the branches so that I could drag them to my curbside.
The branches have been on my curb for several months now. They are leafless and still have not been removed yet.

Thank you.
My neighbor keeps putting the stuff in the easement in front of our house instead of his.. so he had his deck that was destroyed during the storm, so he put it out there.. it was just picked up.. as soon as it was picked up he moved 2 extremely large and heavy stumps in the same place where the deck had sat… the trucks stop and look at it but then leave without picking them up.. I’m afraid they won’t be able to pick them up honestly

You can have all you can haul. A friend of mine loaded his barn with fire wood just by riding the roads and cutting what he found that had been piled up for removal.
Can someone tell me who to contact for the Hurricane Debri pick up. Or file a complaint?
I still have Debri that was left by the contractor’s who came once and was suppose to return because the Truck was Loaded from previous pick-ups. they have not returned back to pick up the Debri yet. It is in a Curve causing a Unsafe Turn in the street, and another pile near a County Drain that backs up Water into my Drive-way.
Debri is located on Calloway Street Cantonment. Please notify the Road Department or whoever is in charge of these Contractors Picking up this Debri.
ECUA Santitaion truck crew see the debris and on their own say, “let the hurricane crew pick up”. But it’s not hurricane debris and the driver just passes by. There is no markings. Contractors clearing land to build more houses are responsible for the debris not FEMA. Contractors to remove & take to the dump & pay those fees.
We appreciate the work performed by IRS from South Fla and the other companies from out-of-state like T
So is a wooden privacy fence that was blown down by Sally OK for pick up and if so any advice on how to set it out? I’m elderly and saving a really hard time getting anyone to help me with this. Thanks.
Did a fantastic job of cleaning up all storm debris in our area ,!

Overall the pick up crews did a good job it’s a shame some folks are taking advantage of the system by piling up non hurricane related items on the side of the road. I hope the county monitors this and issues fines where needed.
Thank you county. Lots of people in our subdivision keep just throwing vegetation and all their junk on the front yards. These folks are just taking advantage at tax payers expense. Load it up and take it to the landfill like most. Stop abusing the system is criminal.
So glad to see this.. To all the dirt bags setting trash and fresh trees out by the road in Ensley looks like your master plan didnt work… LOL
Many now days need to look up the definition of “INTEGRITY” and “IRRESPONSIBLE.” No wonder we are in a coup. Many seem unaware of a lot of things.
I was watching the haulers that have came through and every time they loaded they would put about 3 grapples in trailer and 3 in the truck . That’s a pine top and 2-3 limbs and call that a load . There is no way that is a load . With most contracted through a local company there is a lot of money goin for a little work. Maybe it would have been better for the tax payers to have them be paid by weight. There are portable scales that can be used very easy nowadays. Just my thoughts
Is there a way to acquire wood for curing for fire pit and fireplace?
Should have started this earlier. I;ve seen numerous lot clearings over the last month. In one case the debris trucks made several passes each day to one site a contractor was clearing. The trucks passed legitimate piles and got the contractor piles. I wonder if the debris people were getting a kick back to do favors for other contractors–sure looked like it to me.
Now all the folks that piled up all your non-storm related junk in hopes of having it removed free of charge can load it back up.
