FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

10/13/16 at 4:53 p.m.

The Board of County Commissioners met in a Special Meeting on Wednesday, October 12, 2016 at 6:00 pm. At this meeting the Board approved to pick up debris resulting from Hurricane Matthew on county maintained roads. Debris pickup is scheduled to begin at dawn on Monday, October 17th and will go through dusk, seven (7) days a week until completed.

Debris will be picked up from the County right of way. Residents should leave their debris close to the edge of the road without jeopardizing public safety. Only yard debris and construction/demolition debris will be picked up. This includes items such as leaves, plants, logs and tree limbs, as well as shingles, fencing, drywall, lumber and carpet. Items should be taken to the curb and separated by categories. Household hazardous waste (paint cans, batteries, and electronics) will not be picked up.

Residents are advised that garbage bags will not be picked up, and any yard debris in bags will not be picked up.

Three sites will also open on Monday for citizens to take yard debris. Proof of Nassau County residency is required to use these sites. Proof of residency may include a government issued ID, a utility bill, etc. The following sites will accept vegetative debris only and will not be able to accept construction/demolition debris:
  • Bailey Road Maintenance Yard in Fernandina Beach located at 3163 Bailey Road
  • Hilliard Maintenance Yard in Hilliard located at 37356 Pea Farm Road
  • Woods Lane in Callahan located approximately 0.6 miles south of Crawford Road
All three sites will be open Monday through Friday from 7am until dusk until further notice.

Updates concerning debris pickup will be communicated through the County’s news website, www.thecountyinsider.com, and the County’s FaceBook page, https://www.facebook.com/nassaucountyfl.

For additional information, please contact Nassau County Engineering Services at 904 530-6225 or Road and Bridge at 904 530-6175.

Does this debris pickup include Amelia Island areas that are NOT within city limits?

Yes, as long as it is a county maintained road. If you are unsure, please email me the name of your street and I will look it up for you. srobertson@nassaucountyfl.com.

Yes, Miner Road is County maintained. Contractors began working yesterday and will work 7am until dark, 7 days per week until all debris has been picked up. Please have your debris in the right-of-way as soon as possible to insure you are not missed.
Thank you.
