The Town of Fort Myers Beach is reminding residents that dumping debris, not at a legal drop-off site, is illegal. The Town has mobilized Crowder Gulf, and FEMA monitor, Tetra Tech for Milton debris pickup. They will collect four types of storm debris that need to be in separate piles in order to be collected:
The four types include:
- Electronic Waste
- Construction Debris (C&D)
- Vegetation
- Appliances
 How to put debris out:
- Electronic waste such as computers, printers, copiers, scanners and televisions should be placed in a separate pile.
- Construction and demolition debris includes carpet, furniture, shingles, fencing and other debris resulting from storm damage to homes and structures. This debris will be collected from the curb on multiple passes.
- Vegetative debris includes tree branches, logs and plants. This debris should not be bagged and can be left at the curb. This debris will be collected on multiple passes.
- Appliances can be left at the curb with all food removed. This debris will be picked up on multiple passes.
Lee County has four public drop-off sites available to residents who would like to self-haul debris or yard waste rather than wait for curbside pickup:
- 5031 Pine Island Rd., Bokeelia, FL 33922
- 50 South Rd., Fort Myers, FL 33907
- 18078 Cypress Point Rd., San Carlos Park, FL 33967
- 13801 Orange River Blvd., Buckingham, FL 33905
When oh when will they start the pick up?
