Lee County temporarily adjusts trash collection time

Lee County temporarily adjusts trash collection time

Residents of unincorporated Lee County in Pine Island, Matlacha, North Fort Myers, Fort Myers Shores, Alva, Lehigh Acres, south Fort Myers and the Village of Estero are asked to begin setting their trash, recycling and yard waste to the curb by 5 a.m.

This is one hour earlier than the typical set-out time of 6 a.m. The temporary change is to help Waste Pro drivers avoid excessive heat during summertime’s late afternoons. This does not impact the day of the week residents have their materials collected; that remains the same.

To learn more about what to set out at the curb and proper disposal methods, visit Lee County Solid Waste at www.leegov.com/solidwaste. To recall what your collection day is, visit www.leegov.com and input your address into the “Resident Information Lookup” on the home page. ¦
