The State of Florida requires that anyone who is moving more than 25 waste tires on Florida roadways be registered with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection as a waste tire collector. The current waste tire collector decals are BLUE on WHITE and will expire on April 1, 2025. The YELLOW on WHITE decals expire April 1, 2024, and can no longer be used. Waste tire collector renewal forms are due by March 1 of each year.
Waste-to-Energy (WTE) facilities combust municipal solid waste (MSW) to produce electrical energy. Florida has grown from having one small WTE plant in 1982 to 11 operating WTE facilities as of 2022. Florida has established the largest capacity to burn MSW of any state in the country. Standards for the handling, processing, disposal and recycling of MSW combustor ash are contained in Chapter 62-702, Florida Administrative Code.
In 1979, the Legislature established a sales tax exemption on the purchase of resource recovery equipment that is owned by or operated on behalf of a unit of local government. Resource recovery equipment is equipment that is integrally and exclusively used in the actual process of recovering material or energy resources from solid waste and specifically includes recycling equipment.
