Watching all the destruction in Ft.Myers,Naples Fla.on news.How are these areas ever cleaned up and returned to normal.It must take several years and require a whole lot of landfills.
Same for areas destroyed by tornados like Joplin Missouri a few years ago.

People go out into their yards and clean their shite up. Then enterprising young garbage picking up contractors throw it in a truck for a hefty profit.

One house at a time. Look up pictures of Hurricane Andrew. That thing went through like a buzzsaw

Ive heard it take years and landfills. probably a whole lot of both.

Is your question tantamount to asking how do humans rebuild?

FEMA disaster recovery. Many project management companies bid on these projects as contractors making good money.

It requires several periods of time each consisting of 365 days and the utilization of many garbage disposal sites where the debris is buried

Some of them aren’t
While New Orleans, Houston, Tampa, etc have no problem getting attention and the help they need, they have places south of NOLA like Buras, Port Sulphur, Boothville, etc (and I’m sure there are smaller towns on the coast that are just like these places) that are NEVER cleaned up and never get any aid, but since there aren’t 25K+ people, you never hear about it on the news

What do you mean? This happens after every major hurricane. People can't just move away every time there is a natural disaster. You do what you have to do.
I remember in college one summer I took an African Political science class. The dude who taught it was from Cameroon. Dude was racist. I say this kind of joking, but he was a black dude but wasn't a fan of black Americans. One day he told this black dude he was lazy and would never make it where he grew up.
They had to move everything twice a year. He said his relatives still live that way. There is a river and one time of year the water is really high which they depend on for gardening, its their water supply, etc. The other part of the year there is about a half mile difference when it goes down so they have to move their houses, everything they own. So they pretty much have to start over every 6 months.
He said everyone helps each other, but there is a very low tolerance for laziness. There is no one outside of their community that comes in and moves things for them. You do it or you will be without. That's pretty much what happens after a hurricane.

JFC I couldn’t go any further than this
Do you do this on purpose?

FEMA money is like magic pixie dust.
Sprinkle enough of it around and people come from all over and get things done.

A guy lives next to my dad’s place. He has some cows and a few other things. He also has a bobcat and a dump truck. When stuff like this happens, he hauls it down where ever and makes a pile of FEMA money.

Do you have any personal experiences or do you live through stories your make believe friends tell you?

bullshite. Nobody, especially poor Africans are moving all their shite a half mile every six months. If they're gardening when the water is high, then when the water recedes, they're harvesting and just transporting their water when it's low. Because they aren't gardening in the dry season.
They definitely aren't moving back and forth every six months and rebuilding their hut that was washed away when the water rose last year.
