Hurricane Debris Removal Update

City of North Myrtle Beach, SC - Oct. 17, 2016

The City has selected a debris collection monitoring firm and a debris collection firm. They should begin to mobilize gradually toward the end of this week, as both contractors hire personnel and they learn the federally required collection and monitoring system. They should be out in full force early next week.

Toward the end of this week we have meetings scheduled with both contractors and should emerge with a basic collection schedule. We believe at this point that the contractors will probably work 12 hour shifts.

Again, the debris collection contractor is not allowed to pick up bagged yard debris. However, the City will ultimately collect the bagged yard debris they leave behind. If you are still moving yard debris to curbside, please do not bag it.


Thanks for your patience. This process has to be accomplished in accordance with federal guidelines, which in the end ensures accountability and protects everyone involved.
