Handling Debris from Hurricane Isabel
In the wake of Hurricane Isabel, Fairfax County residents are facing many downed trees and many power outages often related to downed trees.
Residents can expect tree branches and other debris to be picked up by trash haulers. Fairfax County curbside trash and recyclables collection has resumed this weekend and residents can expect to receive pickup on their next regularly scheduled collection day.
County residents are encouraged to begin cleanup as soon as possible. Follow the normal guidelines provided by your trash hauler and prepare any tree limbs and debris according to their standards for collection.
If the county is your trash hauler, bundle large limbs and other debris at the curbside, being cautious to place it on the curb and not block the roadway with large debris. Leaves must be bagged and placed on the curb as well. If you have questions about trash collection or want to arrange for special pickup, call 703-802-3322, TTY 711.
Citizens can self-haul trash, debris and recyclables to the facilities
at the I-66 Transfer Station, 4618 West Ox Road, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., or the
I-95 Landfill, 9850 Furnace Road, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
