We want to let you know our solid waste contractor Meridian Waste has resumed normal, bagged yard waste pickup. We are still working with SCDOT on cleaning up the debris from the impact of Hurricane Helene. The DOT has crews across the Upstate focusing first on interstate and primary routes before moving onto secondary and neighborhood roads.
We understand this process has been lengthy for people in Greer, but we appreciate your continued patience as we continue the cleanup.
A reminder to begin piling debris on the side of the road, safely out of the roadway. You can report issues on a state-maintained roadway by calling 855-467-2368.
