Small-scale municipal drop-off used by Orlando residents for everyday trash and cleanup runs. Located on an industrial stretch of W 7th St, it sees lots of cars and small trucks from the neighborhood. People swing by with yard clippings, household junk and renovation debris.
There’s an entrance booth and traffic flow for vehicles to pull up and unload; expect to stop twice if a scale is used for billing by weight. The site looks like a typical transfer lot - piles, roll-offs and concrete pads - with separate spots for bulky and green material common at Florida facilities. Weekends and spring cleanup times get busy, and hurricane season brings noticeably larger piles when people clear storm debris. Staff directions are usually given from the booth or by attendants on the pads, so follow the traffic cones and signs while moving through the site.

- Cover and secure loads for transport; loose material can blow out on the drive in or while waiting in line.
- Bring help for heavy lifting and wear sturdy shoes - ramps and open-top containers are common and can be awkward to climb into.
- Plan for delays on weekends and after storms: lines form, and it can take extra time to get through the scale and unload.
