The first phase of the debris pickup along County maintained roads has been completed early, and the removal of debris on the west side of the County was completed on November 7th. Nassau County has picked up 47,172 cubic yards and will begin a second pass on November 11th, 2016.
Citizens should have all debris at the right of way and be prepared for pickup no later than November 11th. Any debris that is put out for pick up after November 11th may not be picked up.
If you feel that your debris was missed in the collection process, please contact Nassau County Engineering Services at 904 530-6225 or Road and Bridge at 904 530-6175. You can also email your concern to [email protected].
It is important to note that there may be some sticks and/or leaves left behind. Some lawn maintenance may be required by the property owner.
To assist with cleanup efforts citizens are reminded of the following:
• Paper or plastic bags left at the curb will not be picked up, and may prevent the contractor from picking up any debris left at the site.
• Bagged debris will not be emptied by the contractor.
• Large limbs and logs may require additional equipment, therefore, this type of debris may be left behind on the first pass through a neighborhood.
• Separate the yard debris such as limbs, leaves and logs from construction/demolition debris. Failure to separate the debris will prevent the contractor from picking up any debris at the site.
• Appliances and furniture will not be picked up.
• Household hazardous waste such as paint cans, batteries and electronics will not be picked up.
Two locations are available to residents to drop off vegetative debris:
• Bailey Road Maintenance Yard in Fernandina Beach located at 3163 Bailey Road
• Hilliard Maintenance Yard in Hilliard located at 37356 Pea Farm Road
Proof of Nassau County residency is required to use these sites. Proof of residency may include a government issued ID, a utility bill, etc. These sites will accept vegetative debris only and will not be able to accept construction/demolition debris.
Updates concerning debris pickup will be communicated through the County’s news website, www.thecountyinsider.com, and the County’s Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/nassaucountyfl.
