Sandbags
Sandbags are available to Oakland Park residents for self-service pick-up while supplies last at the Public Works Facility at 5100 NE 12th Terrace. Sandbags are provided with proof of Oakland Park residency (driver’s license or utility bill) in limited quantity.
Stormdrains
Please check the stormdrains on your street. Keep them clear of debris, and call 954-561-6275 to report any obstacles that may cause flooding.
Bulk Trash
If you live in the area scheduled to receive bulk trash collection this week, all bulk trash items should have been placed out for collection by this morning. Please do not place additional items out, as crews have begun collections and will not return to areas already serviced.
