Missoula officials have released areas where residents can drop off storm debris from Wednesday's storm at no cost.
Public Works departments are working to clear debris from public streets and roads, as well as other public rights-of-way.
People are asked not to call 9-1-1 to report trees blocking the right-of-way.
City residents can report downed trees at www.missoulaparks.org or by phone at 406-552-6253.
The City has designated six free drop sites for storm-damaged vegetation.
Residents are encouraged to wait until streets are cleared and power is restored before bringing storm vegetation to the dump sites.
For boulevard trees located between the sidewalk and curb (and any public tree located in City right-of-way):
If tree debris is near utility lines, please stay away and call Northwestern Energy at 1-888-467-2669.
