St. Petersburg residents: Here's how you can you can take care of storm debris from Hurricane Debby

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — St. Petersburg leaders are getting residents ready for cleanup efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Debby.

While the storm may be over now, officials say higher-than-normal tides are expected Tuesday, possibly leading to minor street flooding in low-lying areas.

Vegetative debris that will be collected includes branches, leaves, logs, palm fronds and plants.

Street sweepers are clearing up storm debris around St. Pete. However, the city is reminding you that street sweepers cannot clear palm fronds and large limbs because of their size, and are asking you to collect them yourself. 

If storm debris can fit in your city trash bin with the lid closed, residents are asked to place it there first. 

Storm debris that doesn't fit in the bin can be taken to a brush site or you can request a special pickup.
