Lee County Solid Waste announced that containerized yard waste collection will resume in all county-served areas beginning Monday, November 14.

Residents are asked to use containers, paper lawn and leaf bags or clear plastic bags to set vegetative material – including palm fronds – curbside on their regular collection day.  Black plastic bags and bundled yard waste will not be collected with curbside yard waste at this time. Those items will be collected at a later date by the storm-debris contractor using specialized equipment.

Residents are asked to keep their containerized yard waste separate from any hurricane debris piles.
