As a reminder, residents are asked to place storm-generated debris in piles at the curb in front of their home as soon as possible.  Debris pick-up includes woody, vegetative debris and other construction and demolition (C&D) storm-related debris such as fencing, shingles, etc. Please separate woody, vegetative debris from other debris, as there will be separate pick-ups for each. 

Debris placed in bags will not be picked up unless you have contracted with Republic Services for annual yard debris pick-up services.  All storm-related debris should be moved to the county right-of-way so it can be picked up by Ceres. 

Please be advised that debris removal crews will not enter onto private property to collect or remove debris. However, private roads and subdivisions may be approved on a case-by-case basis pending Federal Emergency Management Agency pre-approval. 

  • As you place tree debris at the curb, please adhere to the following guidelines:
  • Do not place debris on top of utilities, for example: cable, phone, electrical, storm drain boxes or fire hydrants.
  • Please do not place debris in front of or around your mailbox.
  • Please do not place debris in front of or around your driveway, as emergency vehicles may need to enter the area.
  • Please drive with extreme caution in areas with large debris piles.
  • Please do not block or dump any debris into the storm drains or ditches. This will cause a flood hazard.
  • Please aid contractors by sweeping excess and loose debris from the street in front of your house.

  • Contractors will only collect disaster-related debris. Please do not attempt to place garbage or other household refuse with the disaster debris, as it will not be accepted. 

    For questions regarding regular trash pick-up or debris related pick-up, please call the Glynn County Customer Service line at 912-554-7111.

    To report unsafe debris situations (e.g. leaning trees, debris piles in front of stop signs, etc.) or unsafe limbs or leaning trees in the right-of-way please call the Glynn County Public Works Department at 912-554-7746.
