Lumber, drywall, shingles, flooring, cabinets, furniture, fencing and general cleanout debris belong in a Winter Haven container.
On a Winter Haven job, Florida law keeps several items out of landfills: lead-acid batteries, used oil, white goods such as refrigerators and washers, and yard trash bound for a lined landfill.
Household chemicals, electronics, all batteries and biomedical waste are on Polk County's own list of material its sites will not take in ordinary loads. Paint, pesticides, pool chemicals, fuel and pressurized tanks stay out too.
Tires are capped and priced separately at the county, so keep them out of the container.
Asbestos can turn up in older Winter Haven homes, in floor tile, pipe wrap and textured ceilings, and it must be removed by a licensed contractor before demolition.
Tell your Winter Haven account manager what the job involves, and the separate routes get arranged alongside the container.
