Village of Pinehurst Police, Fire, and Public Services staff have worked diligently to clear roads of trees, limbs, and debris as a result of Sunday’s winter storm. Many of the removed items have been placed in the right of way and are scheduled to be cleaned up over the next two weeks. Residents are asked to be patient as crews work their way around the Village to clear the debris.
Due to the substantial amount of storm debris, the Village is temporarily suspending the requirement for yard debris to be completely contained within the yard debris cart until Jan. 28. Residents are asked to utilize their carts when feasible, and to place excess yard debris loose, curbside, and completely off of the road for Village crews to pick up. Bagged yard debris will not be picked up, and any limbs greater than 6” in diameter will not be accepted and are the responsibility of the property owner.
Please note that pickup of trash, recycling, and yard debris carts will occur on regularly scheduled days (including the one-day delay during the week of 1/17-1/21 due to the MLK holiday), but pickup of excess yard debris located outside of carts may be performed on a different day.
In addition, beginning on Jan. 18, the Village of Pinehurst will open the Public Services yard, located at 700 McCaskill Road, on Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for Pinehurst residents to drop off excess yard debris at no charge. Please note that this yard is open to Village of Pinehurst residents only and is not open to landscapers or contractors. The area is monitored by staff and video surveillance, and ID may be required as proof of residency.
Residents are required to leave all yard debris loose in the drop-off area. Nothing bagged may be left behind.
For questions or concerns, please call Pinehurst Public Services at 910-295-5021.
