This MAY shock you...Pizza Boxes are NOT Recycable!! What is recyclable in the City of Plantation


What is recyclable in the city of Plantation, FL? One item that definitely is NOT recyclable are PIZZA BOXES... Personally, I would have never had guessed that! After learning this interesting recycling fact, I thought it would be a good idea to review the recycling guidelines for the city of Plantation, FL.  

 

 

 

 

 

Here are some quick tips for recycling in Plantation, FL:

  1. Place all recyclables together in the SAME recycling container.
  2. In the city of Plantation, all plastics #1-7 are recyclable.
  3. Newspapers, inserts, catalogs, junk mail (mailings from other Realtors ;) office paper, soft covered books, folders, cereal boxes are recyclable in Plantation, FL.
  4. Cardboard boxes need to be flattened
  5. Aluminum, glass, steel, and tin cans are recyclable.
 
 

Items that are NOT recyclable in the city of Plantation, FL

  1. Plastic toys and cups (red SOLO cups are #1 and are recyclable)
  2. Plastic bags
  3. and the most shocking of all in my personal opinion, PIZZA BOXES!

Family Fun Plantation FL Halloween & Safety Festival

Halloween time is upon us and there is no shortage of Halloween family fun events going in Plantation, FL. One of the most popular events is the 

Plantation Halloween & Safety Festival on October 26th 2013 from 10am to 2pm.


This year the Halloween Festival has an all new location, Volunteer Park Community Center, in past years this festival was held in East Plantation at the Plantation Community Center, which has been demolished.

I'm excited to see the Plantation Halloween and Safety Festival in its all new location in West Plantation. The admission to the event is $3 per person for anyone 2 years and older.

One of the biggest attractions to the Plantation Halloween and Safety Festival is the K9 demonstration by the Plantation Police Dept K9 unit. There are also other police and fire exhibits, along with an ID Card station, where parents can  also get ID cards made of their children complete with pictures and fingerprint.

Now the FUN! There is food, face painting, games, bounce houses, puppet shows by the FAMOUS Plantation Library Puppeteers, and a zombie diner- wonder what their Yelp! reviews say.

Most importantly, the Plantation Halloween and Safety Festival would not be complete without a costume contest, usually judged by audience participation so go with your rowdy friends, and of course CANDY!

So sugar up the kiddies and head over to the Plantation Halloween and Safety Festival on October 26th and have them burn off some energy in the bounce houses and playing with neighbors.

You don't have to be an Plantation, FL resident to join in all the fun at the Plantation Halloween and Safety Festival, but wouldn't it be great if you lived in Plantation to be closer to this great event. Now is a great time to buy a home in Plantation, FL and your search can begin today.

South Florida Horse Shows Plantation Acres Saddle Club Horse Show Weekend

South Florida Horse Shows

Plantation Acres Saddle Club show series is beginning this weekend!


Plantation Acres Saddle Club 2013-2014

Show Dates 9/28, 10/19, 11/16, 1/25, 2/22, 3/22, 4/19, 5/17(rain date)


My first horse show was a few years ago at the Plantation Acres Saddle Club Show, and this weekend it will be my daughter's first show. I'm so excited to give my daughter the gift of horsemanship. I hope it helps mold her into a confident woman while keeping her mind off of boys in her teen years. Thankfully, I have many years to worry about this since she's only 5 now.

The Plantation Acres Saddle Club horse show is great for new riders. They offer a wide range of classes for both kids and adults. I feel that the Plantation Acres Saddle Club show caters to all showing levels in a very positive environment focused on having fun. They also offer some really nice awards! The Plantation Acres Saddle Club horse is a great event for the whole family.

I'm an adult beginner rider, because I always believe you are never too old to learn a new trick. Growing up in the Philadelphia area, I never would have imagined I would have to move to South Florida to become an equestrian! It's not all palm trees and beaches here in South Florida. Horse trails and hay bails to palm trees and sandy beaches South Florida is truly the best of both worlds.

I cherish being a part of the South Florida equestrian community.  That is why I have dedicated my business to helping people buy and sell horse properties in Plantation, Davie, and Southwest Ranches, Florida.

If you or someone you  know if interested in buying or selling a horse property in South Florida, please contact Amy Kilcoyne (954) 439-0996. I sell horse properties in Southwest Ranches, Plantation Acres, and Davie.

 You can find a list of Horse Properties for Sale in Southwest Ranches, Plantation Acres, and Davie here: www.livinginbroward.com.
