Grand Island Flood Resources

Date: 07/01/25

Heritage Health (Medicaid)

Seek Shelter:

  • Phone number for resources or shelter is 1-800-RED CROSS (800-733-2767).

Report Damage:

  • Did you have flood damages from the storms this past week in Hall County? Use the Citizen Report Tool to report your damages, upload photos, and owner information. This DOES NOT satisfy a report for insurance or immediate response purposes.

Flood Clean Up:  

Debris/Garbage:

  • Residents and businesses are responsible for disposing of their own debris. 
  • They should use their own garbage haulers for debris inside or outside on their property.  
  • If they can’t fit it in their regular containers, they should haul it to the Grand Island Transfer Station: 5050 W Old Potash Hwy, Grand Island, NE 68803

Basement Flooding: 

  • Do not pump basement flooding water down a drain, which goes into the sanitary sewer. 
  • Instead, pump that water outside to the curb/gutter. 
  • Water pumped into the sewer may return into your home as sewer backup, making matters worse. 

Personal Water Wells:

  • If you have a well for drinking water and it was flooded, make sure to test your well through the Central District Health Department (308-385-5175) to make sure it is safe to drink.
