Recycling has become less than pratical across most the nation so The Villages waste will start going to the Covanta waste-to-energy plant in Lake County rather than trucked all the way to a landfill in Georgia, as is being done now. Lawn waste gets picked up with garbage elimating one pickup a week.

Homes south of the Turnpike are already serviced with this option.
