Yard Waste & Storm Debris Removal in Broward County After Hurricane Season
After the Storm: Dealing with Yard Waste in Broward County
Living in Broward County means dealing with hurricane season every year from June through November. Even tropical storms and heavy summer thunderstorms can leave your property covered in fallen branches, palm fronds, uprooted plants, and scattered debris. While the city handles some curbside pickup, the reality is that municipal services are often overwhelmed after major storms — leaving you waiting weeks while debris sits in your yard attracting pests and code violations.
Common Storm Debris We Remove
- Fallen tree limbs and branches: From small branches to large limbs that block driveways and sidewalks
- Palm fronds and coconuts: A constant issue in South Florida — especially after tropical winds hit Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach's coastal areas
- Uprooted shrubs and plants: Landscaping destroyed by wind and flooding
- Fence panels and posts: Blown down by high winds — extremely common in Coral Springs and Pembroke Pines neighborhoods with wood privacy fencing
- Roof debris: Shingles, tiles, and flashing scattered across the yard
- Patio furniture and outdoor items: Damaged beyond repair by wind and water
- Screen enclosure debris: Torn screens and bent aluminum framing — a South Florida staple after any significant storm
- General yard waste: Leaves, mulch displacement, and soil erosion debris
Why Not Wait for City Pickup?
After a major storm, Broward County municipalities are overwhelmed. Here's the reality most homeowners face:
- City pickup can take 2-6 weeks after a major storm — sometimes longer in hard-hit areas
- Items must be cut to specific lengths and stacked neatly at the curb (who has time for that after a hurricane?)
- Construction debris and non-vegetative waste is NOT included in city pickup
- Piles blocking sidewalks can result in code violations — even after a storm
- Standing debris attracts mosquitoes, rats, and snakes — a real health concern in South Florida's climate
