Escambia County Clears 330K Cubic Yards of Hurricane Isaias Debris; Over 1M Remain

Escambia County crews and contracted haulers are working around the clock to clear storm debris left behind by Hurricane Isaias, with removal efforts ramped up to seven days a week since October 12.

According to North Escambia, county-hired contractors have hauled away approximately 330,000 cubic yards of debris across more than 7,400 loads so far. Despite the aggressive pace, more than a million cubic yards of storm waste remain to be collected across the county.

The combined effort of county personnel and outside contractors reflects the scale of cleanup needed following the hurricane. Residents can expect continued collection activity throughout the county as crews work to clear remaining debris from residential and commercial areas.
