There is a legal "dump" in the area. Take 466 towards 441. Turn right at the lights at Rolling Acres. Approximately two/three miles along you will see a small sign on the right hand side of the road for Recycling Station. Shortly after the sign you will see a dirt road on the left hand side. Drive in there. It is the cleanest recycling station I have ever seen. Just inside the gates on the left hand side there are various "stations" set up for hazardous materials. They take paint, batteries, you name it. Plus, the employees are the most polite people I have ever met at a "dump".

I have been stopped once when a Town Inspector was there and asked if I live in Lady Lake!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course I do.
