Description

Press release from the City of Oklahoma City: 10/14/2021 Officials with the City's Solid Waste Management division are conducting an assessment along Wednesday's storm path to determine the location and amount of storm debris generated. Crews will use the assessment to determine whether a special storm debris pick-up program will be needed. Until an announcement is made, residents who experienced fallen trees or tree limbs are asked to take them to the curb. Tree limbs should be cut into sections 10-feet-long or smaller, and stacked on the curb. Stack them separately from any regular bulky trash items, such as furniture, appliances or carpeting. Commercial properties – including businesses, churches, schools, nonprofits and other organizations – are not eligible for curbside pickup by the City and are responsible for their own debris collection. Learn more about regular bulk waste collection at okc.gov/utilities. Call Utilities Department Customer Service at (405) 297-2833 for questions and details.
