RE: Flood Debris Clean-up Guidance for the Unincorporated Scott County Residents

Scott County Secondary Roads and Conservation, in partnership with the Waste Commission of Scott County, will be assisting with the collection of debris from recent Mississippi River flooding for residents living in unincorporated Scott County.

All unincorporated County residents who were impacted by the Mississippi River flooding are asked to have the approved flood debris to the public right of way, near your road, by Wednesday, May 31st, 2023, at 07:00 AM. Please have your debris sorted in the approved piles (construction, bulky waste, large appliances) in order to assist with collection schedules. The only items that will be collected are what’s listed on the Flood Debris Removal Guideline graphic (see attached).

The collection will start in the northern part of the County and continue south until every unincorporated area has been collected once. Secondary Roads and Conservation will not be returning to areas for additional pick up after the area scheduled pick up is complete.

Included with this release:

  • List of approved Frequently Asked Questions
  • Flood Debris Removal Guideline graphics
  • Resource listing for disposal locations for items not listed on the guidelines
