The title of this thread is NOT CORRECT. The pace might have slowed - none of us can measure this - but "pulled out" implies that it has stopped.
VCDD e-Notification Subject: Administrative Message - Special Notification to All Newsletter Subscribers Date: 9/26/2017 Debris Removal – UPDATED 9/26/2017 5:02 PM Storm related yard debris removal is continuing throughout The Villages community. All storm related yard debris should be placed curbside on residential property, but not in roadways. Please do NOT place debris in plastic bags. It may be un-bagged or in paper biodegradable bags. While the storm related debris is collected, normal yard waste collection is suspended. As the storm debris is collected, Districts will begin receiving their normal yard waste collection the following Wednesday. · Due to the limited amount of debris in Districts 9 and 10, normal yard waste collection will resume Wednesday, September 27th. Should there be large amounts of debris/tree limbs/stumps, they will be left and collected by Crowder-Gulf. · VCDD Nos. 3 and 4 will resume normal yard waste collection this Wednesday, September 27th as storm debris will be removed from residential properties. · The collection in VCDD No. 3 is now complete for all residential properties. · The collection in VCDD No. 4 began on the east side of Buena Vista and residential areas are now substantially complete. Collection is now underway for the portion of VCDD No. 4 on the west side of Buena Vista. · The collection for VCDD No. 2 will be conducted west to east following the completion of collection in VCDD No. 4. · The collection in the Lady Lake/Lake County portion of The Villages began September 22nd. Once that area is complete, the contractor will begin work in VCDD No. 1. · Collection in VCDD Nos. 5 – 8 will begin once all residential areas north of CR 466 are complete. In addition, please do not take your vegetative debris to postal and recreation centers due to safety concerns. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the District Customer Service Center at (352) 753-4508. |

Or Villagers could get down on TWO knees and thank their higher power that debris removal trucks are not needed in the Villages as seriously as they are needed in all of the hardest hit hurricane areas!

From what my understanding is now is that Crowder-Gulf is trying to get more sub contractors to do the hauling in The Villages. Is that correct? I edited the title of this thread. Hope that is more accurate information.

The edited title thread does not show up on the main page with all the thread listings but it is changed in the thread itself. I don't know how to change the title on the main page.

FEMA hauler’s subcontractors head south rather than pick up Villages debris I think your misconception came from the fact that Crowder was not a subcontractor. They were the contractor, who in turn were using subcontractors to help with the hauling. The hauler never pulled out; the subcontractors did, to go south where they would make more money.

Saw several Davey tree service trucks driving in TV today. Maybe they have been hired to help us with the clean-up.

From The Villages Daily Sun Facebook page:
Piles of storm debris left in Hurricane Irma's wake should be gone from The Villages within three weeks, district officials hope after adding a $2-per-cubic-yard bounty to the cleanup contract Tuesday. The delays that have frustrated Villagers could last months longer in other parts of Sumter and Lake counties as labor and equipment shortages plague the company paid to do the job. More details in Wednesday's Daily Sun. |

If TV had to pay its haulers all the extra money for the many extra truckloads of debris dumped, you would feel that in your wallet. I don't get why people are so upset about this.
