NCDOT will pick up storm debris Sept. 14-17
The North Carolina Department of Transportation will be conducting a pickup of storm-related debris along state-maintained highways in Dare County only, beginning next Tuesday, Sept. 14, through Friday, Sept. 17.
The storm debris has been steadily piling up each day since Earl passed offshore of Cape Hatteras in the early morning hours of Friday, Sept. 3. Most of the debris is from soundside flooding when winds shifted to the northwest and sent a surge of tide into the island’s villages.
Some piles are rather modest, while others are on the mountainous side. And not everything is going to get picked up – like that trailer on the roadside in Frisco.
NCDOT advises that property owners should bring only storm-related debris, such as trees and limbs, to the highway right-of-way for pickup. No construction, demolition, hazardous materials, or appliances will be collected. These should be taken to appropriate disposal locations by property owners.
Debris should be kept out of the roadway, and property owners are asked to cut the debris into 5- or 6-foot pieces, if possible.
Storm debris pickup on private roads and in gated communities in unincorporated areas of Dare County will be conducted by Dare County Public Works beginning on Tuesday, Sept. 21. Property owners in these areas need to have tree and limb debris from Hurricane Earl by the roadside before Sept. 21.
Dare County will conduct a large item pickup for other items throughout Dare County in early October. This will be the opportunity for property owners to have other large items picked up. The dates, times, and locations of this large item pickup will be posted on www.darenc.com when the schedule is announced.
For more information on what items are allowed or for other questions on garbage and debris removal, contact Dare County Public Works at (252) 475-5880.
