Curbside Recycling Information for Winter Garden, FL Residents

If you’re like me, I sometimes forget exactly what I can & cannot recycle at curbside. And if you’re new to Winter Garden FL, purchased a home for sale or even renting a home, this recycling information will help. (pretty much pertains to all I would think but who knows) What I do love though is we don’t have to separate things anymore. NICE! Pick-up for recycling at curbside is once a week in Winter Garden.
