The Cuyahoga County Office of Emergency Management, in partnership with volunteers from Team Rubicon, the Southern Baptist Convention Disaster Relief Ohio, and Crisis Cleanup, has established a hotline for residents who want assistance moving tree and yard debris. Residents struggling to clear tree and yard debris can call (330)208-9761 to make a request.

Services are free of charge and will begin this week.

Clean-up crews will assist with cutting fallen trees and tree limbs on private property, and with bundling and stacking debris for pick-up by municipalities. Requests will be assessed and prioritized based on volunteer capabilities and residents’ needs.
