The county will close two of the four hurricane debris public drop-off sites at 5 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 3, due to the declining use from residents. The two closing locations are:

• 13801 Orange River Blvd., Buckingham

• 50 South Road, Fort Myers

Residents in these areas who would like to use the sites listed above are encouraged to do so now.

Lee County would like to thank park patrons for their patience while the county works on reopening Brooks Park. Although Brooks Park will close Sunday as a debris site, the county must remediate the land before it reopens for public use. For more information, visit LeeParks.org.

Residents who wish to self-haul Hurricane Milton debris can use the two remaining drop-off sites. These locations will remain open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily:

• 5031 Pine Island Road, Bokeelia

• 18078 Cypress Point Road, San Carlos Park

Only storm debris will be accepted, and you must be prepared to unload your trucks yourself. No more than 5 cubic yards of debris may be dropped off at a time. Debris drop-off must occur during business hours — anyone who dumps material after 5 p.m. could be charged for illegal dumping.

Be prepared to show identification and be a resident of unincorporated Lee County. Accepted forms of ID include driver’s license, utility bill, rental or lease agreement, or local business license. You will be asked to complete a waiver confirming the debris came from your property. Waivers can be found online at LeeGov.com/solidwaste/hurricane, or printed forms are available on site.

In addition to these debris drop-off sites, the county and its contracted vendor continue debris-collection operations. Residents with questions can call Lee County Solid Waste customer service at 239-533-8000. Additional information is available at LeeGov.com/Storm.
