Can't wait for county pickup? in Pensacola Beach
After a hurricane, county curbside pickup is free but can take weeks or months to reach every street, and it has sorting rules: vegetation separate from construction debris. A private haul-away is the dumpster alternative: one visit, mixed loads, and nothing has to be dragged to the curb first.

FAQ
Storm Debris Removal questions.
Do you cover all of Pensacola Beach?
Yes. We serve all of Pensacola Beach, including Gulf-front condos, Sound-side homes, Beachfront rentals, and the rest of Escambia County.
When will Escambia County pick up storm debris in Pensacola Beach?
Escambia County runs curbside debris pickup after declared storms and posts the schedule and sorting rules on its website (https://myescambia.com). If you can't wait, or the debris isn't at the curb, a private haul is the faster option.
Is private debris removal faster than county pickup?
Usually, yes. County pickup after a big storm is free but can take weeks. A private haul is paid, but it's often the same or next day.
My insurance might cover debris removal. Can you still help?
Yes. Tell us insurance is involved and we'll still connect you with a hauler. WAHOO! takes no fee on any job insurance pays for; that's Florida law and our rule.
Do I need to sort the debris?
No. A private hauler takes mixed loads. County curbside pickup is the one with sorting rules.
How long does county storm debris pickup take?
After a major storm it can take weeks to months to reach every street, depending on how much debris there is. Check your county's website for the current schedule.
What's the difference between debris removal and junk removal?
Debris removal is what the storm left outside: limbs, fence pieces, shingles. Junk removal is stuff from inside the house or garage. Many haulers do both, and one visit can cover both.
