To ensure debris removal is conducted efficiently and safely, the City of Bradenton requests that residents follow these guidelines:
- Place your debris curbside as soon as possible.
- Priority will be given to areas with the most concentrated and unsafe debris.
- Separate debris into specific categories for proper disposal:
o Vegetative debris (trees, branches, limbs and other leafy material)
o Construction materials (wood, fencing, drywall, glass, metal, roofing materials, tile, furnishings, fixtures, etc.)
o Appliances (refrigerators, ovens, freezers, air conditioners, washers, dryers, etc.)
Important Notes:
- Hazardous waste (e.g., paint cans, pesticides, motor oil, batteries) will not be collected.
- Do not place storm-related vegetative debris in trash bags or cans. Vegetative debris should be placed directly at the curb, between the back of the sidewalk and the street curb.
- City of Bradenton Solid Waste services will continue as scheduled for green and blue can collections.
- The City will not enter private property to collect debris.
