Emergency/Disaster Debris Management North Carolina has hundreds of pre-approved disaster debris sites across the state. For information about pre-approved sites in a particular county or to request that sites be activated to receive disaster debris, please contact the Regional Environmental Specialist for that county. Sites are only listed as active when in use, and can only be activated by the site contact. To view a map of currently active debris sites, please see the Solid Waste Section's Interactive Mapping Application of Active Temporary Debris Storage and Reduction Sites. ***While these sites might be available for disaster debris, please contact your local government for direction on waste disposal procedures following an emergency or disaster. The best way to dispose of most storm debris – especially debris from damaged mobile homes, houses and other buildings – is to rely on your county or municipality’s waste disposal services or haul your waste to a permitted municipal solid waste landfill.
