Lauderhill Debris Pick Up Instructions and Two More Parks to Open After Hurricane Irma



City of Lauderhill Logo


The Disaster Debris Haulers are working around the City to remove the waste from Hurricane Irma.  All garbage, bulk, and recycling pick up has resumed on your regularly scheduled days from Waste Management. It is imperative you follow the directions below on how to separate and set out garbage to avoid being missed or cited by Code Enforcement.   
REGULAR GARBAGE PICK UP – You may put bags of leaves in your 96 gallon garbage container along with regular waste. http://lauderhill-fl.gov/community-services/trash-collection
BULK PICK UP –Bulk can include bagged items such as bagged leaves as well. Do not put out your bulk items until the night before your scheduled pick up day as designated by the bulk calendar.  http://lauderhill-fl.gov/community-services/bulk-trash-schedule
DISASTER STORM DEBRIS – HORTICULTURAL STORM RELATED DEBRIS (not bagged) is being picked up now. Do not put out regular bulk garbage with this debris. (If it is your regularly scheduled bulk day keep your vegetative debris separate from your regular bulk items.) With that, please also keep storm related vegetative debris separated from other storm related debris like damaged fencing and building materials. Trees and branch limbs must cut in no longer than 10 foot segments.
Placement of debris - For single family homes, place your debris in your swale. Condos and apartments should place storm related debris where bulk trash is normally located. Remember to keep regular bulk and storm related debris separated, further separating vegetation from damaged fencing and building materials.   Please ask your guard gates and security companies to work with the disaster haulers and waste companies who are picking up debris.
RECYCLING –See the schedule for your regular recycling pick up day. http://lauderhill-fl.gov/community-services/lauderhill-s-new-recycling-program. If you have questions concerning garbage, bulk, recycling, or disaster debris removal, please call 954-730-3000.
