We cannot believe the resorts in Florida do not recycle!!! We are staying in a condo and we have to drive to the supermarket to recycle. This is a real turn-off for us. We are a family that regularly recycles and cares about the environment! Shame on you Florida. We won't return until the laws change.

It would create jobs and keep our land cleaner. I try so hard to recycle everything that I can, but it really is inconvenient to store everything and then haul it to the recycling center. Our goverment wants to be in control of everything why not take control of our garbage. Our goverment is garbage! Who do we talk to to make changes?

Yet, nowhere in the area of Poinciana we are in, can you find a recycling bin - unless in a gated community. WHY? We asked the gentlemen driving the garbage truck, when recycling was picked up, he said no recycling pick up, just put it in with the garbage. This completely goes against what my family has done for years, how can this be changed!!!! I just moved from Connecticut and was under the impression that recycling was manditory in Florida.

Now I spend some time in Zephyrhills, Florida and there is no recycling of tin, plastic or glass. It kills me to be throwing these articles in the garbage. Is there any way of bringing this to the attention of the State Government? I live in Ohio and have been recycling since 1989, even before the service was brought to my town.

I would also like to know what the process is, i.e. do we need to crush the cans, or just wash them? What is the process for large vegetable and soup cans (the ones that are used in commercial kitchens)? Thank you for your help.

Before I moved to Floida I lived in in Palm Springs, Ca and they had places to bring in our recyleables. So can you let me know if Florida has anything like that. Thanks.
