This was posted 2 days ago on the Nextdoor site. I'm in 70808 with a pile of branches still sitting in my yard. I know they said on the news after the last storm that they would begin pickup the week of 10/19, but they seem to be moving very slowly.

Hurricane Delta Debris Removal Update. Neighbors,
We are steadily making progress with our debris removal operations following Hurricane Delta.
Over the past week, we have completed operations in two neighborhoods – Westminster and Pine Park – and are expanding into additional areas impacted by the storm.
We currently have crews active in the following areas: Tara, Old Goodwood, Shenandoah, Sherwood Forest, South Harrells Ferry, Jefferson and Bocage, North Sherwood, Mid City and Southdowns. In the coming week, we will expand into additional neighborhoods and areas that include Broadmoor, Lobdell, Pollard Estates, Kenilworth, Jefferson Terrace, North Foster, Glen Oaks, Oak Hills, Hoo Shoo Too, Elliot Road, Tiger Bend Road, Riverbend and the Highland Road corridor between Siegen and Interstate 10.
Fencing damaged by the storm may not be covered by FEMA for emergency debris removal. In response, Republic Services will soon begin picking up damaged fencing as part of their normal garbage collection services and operations.
Please continue to be patient with our crews as we navigate throughout these and future areas. The vegetative nature of the debris created by this storm, including scattered piles of branches and sticks, makes it time intensive for our crews and trucks to collect. All storm debris and trash should continue to be separated into piles and placed curbside for efficient collection based on the attached diagram.
Thanks as always for your understanding and assistance as we continue to work as hard as possible in our ongoing hurricane response and recovery efforts.
