City cars damaged by storm.

Iced trees

Storm Reconstruction Services (SRS) debris haulers trucked 61,009 cubic yards of tree debris Tuesday, the second consecutive day with a total more than 60,000 cubic yards.

Since the crews began working last week, they have hauled away 377, 798 cubic yards of debris at a cost of $1.431 million.

Debris at curbside.

Eighty-seven hauling trucks and 18 tree-trimming trucks were employed by the contractor Tuesday.

Haulers continued to have difficulties in some neighborhoods with cars parked in streets, blocking access to debris piled at the curb. Dealing with parked cars is slowing the collection efforts on some streets.

Obstacle Course.

No safe parking.

What Citizens Should Do To Prepare for Removal

• Avoid parking in the street
• For safety, avoid driving where crews are working
• Stack debris as close to the curb as possible and within the right-of-way. (The contractor cannot go past this point.) Do NOT stack on or close to utility meters, telephone or cable switch boxes, fences or mailboxes.
