CLAY COUNTY, Fla. – Clay County officials said debris pickup could take several weeks and asked residents to be patient as crews continue to work around the clock after back-to-back hurricanes.

On Oct. 7, crews began picking up debris and will continue to work seven days a week until the operation is completed, a spokesperson said.

Residents are asked to separate tree limbs and vegetative debris from items like wooden fencing.

Wooden fencing or other non-vegetative storm debris can be collected in a bulk pickup through FCC Environmental Services, which can be arranged by calling 904-490-9996 or brought to the Rosemary Hill Solid Waste Facility. Residents who pay for garbage collection can bring up to 500 pounds per month at no charge to that facility, according to the county.

“We appreciate our community’s patience as we work through this process as quickly as possible,” the county’s spokesperson wrote.

The county’s call center is still operating 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday to answer residents’ questions.
