Lee County Solid Waste To Begin Seasonal Adjustments

Seasonal Adjustments To Collection Schedule

Courtesy of the Lee County Government, residents of unincorporated Lee County are asked to set their trash, recycling, and yard waste to the curb by 5:30 a.m. beginning Thursday, May 1st.

Unincorporated areas of Lee County are:

  • Pine Island
  • Matlacha
  • North Fort Myers
  • Fort Myers Shores
  • Alva
  • Lehigh Acres
  • South Fort Myers
  • Iona
  • The Village of Estero
  • Bonita Springs

This is one hour earlier than the typical set-out time of 6:30 a.m.

The seasonal change helps the contracted haulers’ drivers complete routes earlier in the day as summer’s heat arrives. This annual seasonal adjustment does not impact the day of the week residents have their materials collected; that remains the same.
