Debris removal on County maintained roads located within the unincorporated areas of Nassau County began on Monday, September 18, 2017. To date, 43,000 cubic yards of debris has been removed from County right-of-ways east of I-95. The contractor, Crowder Gulf, currently has 9 haul trucks in operation. Each truck is assigned to a designated Zone. As a Zone is completed, the crew will be authorized to move on to the next Zone.

Due to the widespread amount of debris, the contractor has not been able to provide a set schedule. Single piles of debris can take several trips therefore it is hard for them to determine how long a particular Zone will take and when they can move on to the next Zone. The contractor is working 7 days per week from 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. in an effort to move quickly.

As of the week of October 9, 2017, the contractor still has crews driving all County roads west of I-95 doing assessments of the debris and determining the best route of removal. This area is very spread out so this phase is taking additional time and we appreciate your patience while they continue their assessments. It is anticipated that the contractor will add additional haul trucks in the next 2 weeks which will focus solely on the areas west of I-95.

Below are some friendly reminders regarding the debris removal process:

• The contractor will only be picking up yard debris (tree limbs, logs, leaves, etc.) and construction debris (fencing, shingles, drywall, etc.) from County maintained roads. Items should be separated into two piles and placed in the right-of-way. Failure to separate will prevent the contractor from picking up any debris at the site as these items are taken to different collection sites.
• Bagged debris or debris in containers will not be picked up. Furthermore, having these types of items mixed into your piles will prevent the contractor from picking up any debris at the site.
• Large limbs and logs may require additional equipment, therefore, this type of debris may be left behind on the first pass
• Appliances and household furniture will not be picked up. These items are accepted at the Nassau County Landfill located at 46026 Landfill Road in Callahan. Please call (904) 530-6700 with questions about the types of items accepted.
• If the contractor visits a particular road and determines that there isn’t enough room in the haul truck to remove it all, they may only pick up a few piles. Just because they visited your road and took some piles does not mean that they are complete. They will return to collect additional piles as soon as possible.
• Cities and Towns have their own contractor to handle debris within their limits. Individuals residing within the City of Fernandina Beach or the Towns of Hilliard of Callahan would need to contact those entities directly with questions or concerns.

Attached is a list of roads in which the contractor has already begun working on. Please note that none of these roads have been completed yet at the time of this publication. We will continue to post weekly updates on our website at www.thecountyinsider.com.

As a reminder, two drop off sites have been established for citizens who wish to deliver their debris in lieu of waiting for a contractor, or for those residing on private roads. Both sites will accept vegetative debris free of charge with proof of residency. Neither bagged debris nor construction debris will be accepted at the sites. Contractors are NOT authorized to use these sites:
