Effective immediately, Newberry County Public Works will no longer be accepting debris -- this includes the yard debris/mulching facility (due to it being full) at the Newberry County Transfer Station.
Any debris will need to be placed upon the right-of-way in compliance with SCDOT (see graphics).
At this time, we do not know when the state contractors will be at any specific location to pick-up debris. However, they will be picking up from all SCDOT, county, and local roads in Newberry County.
If you have questions you may call please call Newberry County Public Works at 803-321-2180. Please be advised that Public Works cannot answer any schedule questions in regards to pick-up and removal.
The Lutheran Church of the Redeemer and Chappells Baptist Church worked with The Salvation Army and the Red Cross, respectively, to help provide free meals to the Newberry County community this week, in the wake of Hurricane Helene.
While both programs have now ended, Newberry County wanted to say thank you to all those involved helping to provide this invaluable service to our community in a time of need. In fact, 550 meals were provided at the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer during the last three days.
Emergency Services Director Tommy Long expressed his gratitude to the organizations for stepping up, volunteering and providing for the community!
