Collection and Disposal Monitoring
A disaster can result in numerous types of debris such as hazardous hanging limbs, sand, construction materials, vehicles and personal property, any of which can wreak certain havoc on a community. Locating the staff, equipment, and funds to devote to debris removal can be a complex process for even the most well-prepared of jurisdictions.
Through our vast expertise in debris management, BDR offers Collection and Disposal Monitoring for clients, ensuring that post-event clean-up activities are carried out with the utmost efficiency and speed.

"City staff was challenged to provide basic services to our citizens in the weeks and months following hurricanes Charley (8/13/04), Frances (9/04/04), and Jeanne (9/26/04). Over one million cubic yards of debris had to be collected, reduced, and recycled or hauled to a landfill. In total, four thousand stumps had to be ground or pulled, five hundred hazardous trees had to be cut down, and over one-million dollars was spent on removing hanging branches over right-of-ways. Through it all, Beck’s staff worked long hours, often seven days per week, to get the job done. Beck staff has been instrumental in all of our meetings with FEMA and has provided supporting data and back up information when funding eligibility issues required additional explanation."
