What that means for totes

Our reading: a construction-heavy workforce and a lagoon location mean tradespeople and boat owners are likely callers. Say what a tote last held and how you will move it.

Ask us about rain catchment if you have a yard.

A city on a lagoon, with a historic downtown and a college, has a lot of older buildings. Our reading: tradespeople working on older buildings are likely requesters, and a lagoon-side household should plan for salt air.

Before you buy in Lake Worth Beach, check whether your building is in the historic downtown. An older building may have rules about equipment near the street, and a lagoon-side lot should account for salt.

Our reading: a lagoon city with an inlet, a rail corridor and a college has a mix of boat, trade and student-housing requests. A landscape contractor on a rented lot should check whether the landlord allows a tote on the pad. For a boat owner, salt exposure is the main wear factor on a cage tote, so say whether the cage is galvanized and how the valve looks.

A tote near the lagoon or a tidal canal faces salt spray; rinse the cage after storms and check the valve, and say in the form if the metal is already rusting.

If the totes live near the Intracoastal or an inlet, tell us how many storms they have been through and whether any have shifted off their pads; a tote that has tumbled before is graded with more care, and a straight description of that history is more useful than a favorable one. Tote owners near the lagoon are best served by a short list in the form of the cage condition, the valve type and the cap state.
