Gulf-Stream-property-Police

The Town of Gulf Stream provides its own Police Department, which patrols the Town 24 hours a day. The Police Station is located at 246 Sea Road. All new and existing security alarm systems require an “application for alarm permit” which are issued by the Police Department.

Police Contact Numbers

For emergencies, please call 911. To contact the Gulf Stream Police Department for non-emergency police assistance, please call dispatch at (561) 243-7800. Contact the administrative office Monday-Friday at (561) 278-8611 (9:00am – 4:00pm).

Crime Prevention and Safety Tips

  • Remove valuables from your cars and keep the doors locked. Utilize the alarm system and secure your home in your absence. An open garage door is an advertisement of the property stored within and provides an easy access point to the rest of the house. Make sure your garage door is closed completely and that it is opened only when necessary.
  • Going on vacation? Call your Police Department. They will check the property periodically while you are gone and notify your specified emergency contact(s) if any problems are found. Arrange for your mail, newspapers and delivered packages to be picked up daily.

Solid Waste Disposal

The Town currently has a franchise agreement with Waste Management, which provides for “back-door” garbage pick up on Wednesday and Saturday east of the Intracoastal Waterway and in Place Au Soleil. It is not necessary to carry your garbage curbside.

In order to maintain the community’s appearance on garbage days, please leave the garbage just outside the side door or garage door. You can also designate an enclosed area just beside the garage and inform Waste Management of its location (561) 547-4000. Recycling pick-up is on Saturday east of the Intracoastal and in Place Au Soleil. Non-dumpster residents will be billed bi-monthly by the Town.

Please contact Waste Management for large vegetative and bulk pickup. Homeowners may be billed separately by Waste Management for bulk pick-up per cubic yard.
