Yes ........... my other half left the house before 8am and was back almost immediately, no lines, no problems.

Went about 9 by golf cart waited about 1/2 an hour to drop it off no big deal. Police directing on Old Camp did a fine job.

It is appreciated that people are given an opportunity for disposing of hazardous material at a center. However I keep wondering why Sumter county does not have a permanent facility like that of Lake County ? It is opened twice a week year round drive in find designated location deposit drive off

The same sort of nightmare occurred with paper shredding day

This area is getting much too large

There is enough demand for holding this sort of event several times per year, now that TV is so large, and spreading them around would certainly reduce the numbers trying to get to each one. Maybe at regional rec centers, rather than town centers?

The man ahead of us in a beautiful Golf Cart in Florida on a beautiful day in The Villages was percolating for about a half hour until he lost it when an officer made him stop and let people from the other direction enter the site. It was free entertainment. I wonder what is going thru everyone's mind? Don't they budget enough time for this task? Does everyone expect to be first? I think it was a great event and that the amount of humanity that attended was more than expected. The people processing the cars were great even though they were in the sun since 7.30 am. The real beef here is the business's that were virtually shut down because of the traffic. The Polo Grounds sounds great but Hazardous waste and $$ Expensive $$ Horses don't mix.
