Lafayette Consolidated Government (LCG) has contracted services for flood-related debris pick up for the City of Lafayette and unincorporated areas of the parish to begin Monday, Aug. 22. Collection will include furniture, construction materials, household hazardous waste, large appliances and electronics.

To ensure safe and speedy pick up of flood-related debris:

  • Debris should be placed as close to the street as safely possible, but should not block the roadway

  • All debris should be clear of ditches

  • For safety reasons, refrigerator and freezer doors must be secured with duct tape

  • Do not place debris next to fire hydrants, water meters or electric pedestals; doing so will inhibit access by LUS should an emergency service issue arise

  • Place debris at least three feet from mailboxes and all poles including electrical and telephone poles

  • Place debris as least three feet away from trees and avoid low-hanging branches

  • Debris cannot be collected from private property; do not place between your house and a sidewalk

During the next several weeks, the collection trucks will make up to three passes to ensure that all flood-related debris is collected. Flood affected residents are asked to combine debris piles with neighbors where possible.

Expanded Garbage Collection

Recycling and regular household garbage should be placed in the appropriate carts provided by Republic Services.

Republic Services customers will also receive excess household waste collection the week beginning Monday, Aug. 22. The excess collection is for household garbage (no construction debris) that is in excess of the capacity of the 96 gallon carts provided by Republic. All excess garbage must be bagged, with individual bags not to exceed 35 pounds and should be placed at least three feet away from the automated garbage cart.

Republic Services will work to maintain their garbage, recycling and yard waste collection schedule. If delays should occur, customers are asked to exercise patience and leave their carts at the road until they are serviced.

During this cleanup period, residents are also asked to also be mindful of displaced manhole covers and to close any sewer cleanouts that may have opened during this flood event. To specifically report a displaced manhole cover, please call Lafayette Utilities System at (337)291-5700.
