For curbside pickup, the county is asking residents to separate debris from regular garbage and into the following three categories:

  • Vegetative (e.g., tree branches)
  • Construction/Demolition (e.g., building materials, fencing, furniture, mattresses)
  • Appliances/White Goods

Debris should be placed at least 3 feet away from structures such as mailboxes, vehicles, and backflow prevention assemblies. Do not place debris in bags, officials said.
