Hurricane season in Florida runs from June 1 through November 30, and Central Florida residents know the drill. Whether you're in Orlando, Kissimmee, Daytona Beach, or Melbourne, proper debris management before and after a storm can protect your property and speed up recovery.
Pre-Hurricane Junk Removal: What to Clear Before the Storm
Why Pre-Storm Cleanup Matters
Loose items in your yard become dangerous projectiles during a hurricane. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends removing all potential debris before storm season begins.
Items to Remove Before Hurricane Season
- Yard debris: Dead branches, fallen limbs, and dead trees
- Outdoor furniture: Unsecured patio sets, umbrellas, and decorations
- Construction materials: Leftover lumber, bricks, and renovation waste
- Old fencing: Damaged or loose fence panels and posts
- Junk vehicles: Non-running cars, boats, or trailers in the yard
- Shed contents: Old tools, chemicals, and stored junk
Pre-Storm Checklist
- Walk your entire property and identify loose items
- Remove dead trees and overhanging branches (hire a tree service for large jobs)
