Curly,

Welcome!!! Here are a few brief answers. Most of these topics have been covered...you can get these answers and more by using the SEARCH link at the top of the page.

Since it is a new Villa, I assume you are in Sumter County.

Step 1 Driver's License...2 closeby offices....Rt 25 off of 441 in Lady Lake; or Wildwood off 301. Can call to make appt or just show up. Bring old license; may need to bring passport too - I didnt' need it but a neighbor did.

Step 2 - Title/Register your car - Sumter County Annex building at Morse Blvd and 466; can also do voter registration here and file for homestead exemption for property taxes.

Mail Service...pickup your key from Jane's outpost in Lake Sumter landing; as you will read in other posts that should be automatic to start delivery, but, you might want to check with the post office to be sure or meet your letter carrier at the postal facility for your neighborhood.

Trash collection...varies by neighborhood; ours are Tues and Fri; check with your neighbors. Recyclables collected once a week.

Recyclables...all go into a clear plastic bag; on dumping end they have an in stream machine that separates things out; no bins allowed. Moving suppies go out with regular or recycle trash. There is also a Sumter County landfill/dump off of 466.

Enjoy your new home and new lifestyle...
