Start thinking about hurricane season. And did you get one of these flyers (below) on your door in Lake Worth?

Start thinking about the upcoming hurricane season. An inspection of trees and brush around your home is something to take note of. The City's Vegetation Amnesty Week is coming up (5/23–5/27). During Amnesty Week it doesn't matter what day your usual vegetation pick-up is: You can put vegetation out on any day and not be cited by the City.

And, by the way, did you get one of these cards on your door?

For more information on schedules, recycling, refuse pickup, etc., use this link to the City's Public Services Dept.

There are four zones in Lake Worth for waste collection and each zone is on a different schedule. For instance, the card above is for the northeast area of the City (Zone 3), which is north of Lake Ave and east of Dixie Hwy. Some important things to keep in mind:

• Each month there is a "Bulk" pickup—no vegetation is picked up on that day. Construction waste IS NOT considered residential bulk waste. 
• No pickup anywhere in the City on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
• Vegetation amnesty week is May 23–May 27.
• If you have any doubts or questions call 561-533-7344.
