Hurricane Cleanup in Key West, Florida
What the storm left, loaded and gone: one crew, one firm number, same week.
Hurricane cleanup in Key West covers loading, hauling, and disposal of what the storm left, with one firm number from photos and no storm surcharge.
Key West calls this week start with a fence knocked flat, the neighbor's storage building resting on it and palm fronds heaped across both. Down the lane, more limbs have buried a driveway.
I take photos first for the insurance file, then the crew cuts, loads, and hauls. Key Largo and Big Pine Key are on the same run when the schedule lines up. The full picture, including what we do not do, is on the Florida hurricane cleanup page.
What we haul out of Key West yards
Limbs and green waste by the trailer load, fence sections, sheds and carports the wind took apart, pool cages and screen enclosures, soaked furniture and appliances, dock boards the surge left behind. Residential and commercial, Key West and the surrounding county on the same routes. And if the storm dropped a boat in the yard, the same visit hauls it: hurricane boat removal in Key West is the trade this company was built on.
What we do not do
Honesty up front saves everyone a phone call. We are a hauling operation, not a disaster restoration contractor. We do not dry out flooded interiors, treat mold, tarp or repair roofs, or touch electrical. If your house took water, the order is: insurance first, a restoration contractor second, and us when there is a pile that needs to leave. We will happily be the third call, and we will not pretend to be the first two.
Photos first, for the claim
The pile gets photographed where it sits and again when the ground is clear, because most storm cleanup in Key West ends up in front of an adjuster. The full set is yours the same day. We document, your adjuster decides, and nobody promises coverage over the phone.
Hurricane cleanup in Key West: what owners ask
Depends where the storm hit hardest, and we are honest about the order. Photos get you a firm number immediately and a slot with it. Urgent access problems, a blocked drive or a leaning tree, jump the line.
No. Stacking is the county's rule for free curbside pickup, not ours. We take it from where it fell, cut what will not load whole, and rake the footprint before the truck leaves.
Compare the whole cost, not the sticker. A dumpster still needs you to cut, drag, and load everything yourself, storm debris is heavy, and overweight fees surprise people. We quote the finished result: pile gone, yard raked.
Sorted and routed properly. Limbs get ground, appliances and fence metal get recycled, the rest goes to a permitted disposal site. Doing that right is most of why a cleanup company exists at all.
For half the pile, maybe. Free curbside is real, weeks out, and curb-only, cut to their spec. Plenty of Key West owners split it: we clear what cannot wait or cannot reach the curb, the county takes the rest. We will tell you honestly which half is which.
