What that means for totes

Our reading: a plastics and manufacturing presence suggests a few light-industrial users. The residents' job figures are about where people work, not where businesses operate.

Most requests will be for yards: strap, screen and place on a pad.

A master-planned city with a corporate park is likely to have orderly lots and association rules. Our reading: a household here should confirm the association's rules about tanks, and a business should say what the tote last held.

Before you buy in Coral Springs, check with the master association and the city. A planned community usually has firm rules about visible equipment and a process for exceptions.

Our reading: with Fiserv offices, plastics subsidiaries and a corporate park in town, the useful distinction is between an office tenant with almost no totes and a manufacturer with several. Totes that held resin, adhesives or cleaning concentrate belong in the caged-or-plastic grading questions on the grades page, so name the product and whether the liner was changed. Stacks from a plastics firm often arrive in matching sets, which helps grading.

A practical check for Coral Springs: measure the gap under the eave before choosing a size, because a 275 gallon tote on its cage stands about four feet tall and needs a stable, level base.
