Managing Storm Debris

When a dangerous storm hits, you know what to do, but what about afterwards?  Cooperation and proper clean-up procedures can go a long way toward regaining our way of life.

Please be sure to separate your debris into the following categories:

		Yard Debris - including trees and brush
		Building Debris - including construction materials, carpet and furniture
		Bulky Metal Items - including appliances and bikes
		Household Garbage - including food and paper waste
		Household Hazardous Materials - paint, solvents, cleaners, fertilizers and insecticides should be separated with extreme care.

And, as you clear debris from your yard and home, please be careful not to block:

		Roadways
		Fire Hydrants
		Utility Boxes

Do your part to help speed up the recovery process!
