Construction and Demolition Debris Collection Has Begun

Charlotte County has begun collecting construction and demolition debris. As of 4 p.m., Nov. 2, more than 42,000 cubic yards of construction and demolition debris has been collected, in addition to 1,047,524 cubic yards of vegetative debris. The county’s debris collection vendor continues to add crews and equipment to augment its current efforts.

Residents are reminded to continue to separate debris by type.

The debris collection dashboard at www.CharlotteCountyFL.gov/debris provides a real-time, street-by-street tally of both vegetative and construction and demolition debris.

Residents may continue to use debris drop-off sites and mini-transfer facilities for both construction and demolition debris and vegetative debris, but not household waste from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. Between Oct. 6, when the Mid-County Transfer and Recycling Facility reopened and Wednesday, more than 13,000 loads of debris have been dropped off at the four locations.

Two temporary drop-off locations are.

  • Placida West Boat Ramp, 12560 Placida Road
  • 7000 Florida St., east of Punta Gorda
The mini-transfer facilities locations are:

  • 19765 Kenilworth Blvd. in Port Charlotte
  • 7070 Environmental Way in Englewood
For Hurricane Ian information, call the Charlotte County Emergency Operations Center from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday-Friday at 941-833-4000 or 941-743-1320.
