Discarding or accumulating solid waste in unincorporated Osceola County anywhere but an authorized disposal site is prohibited by county code. Florida's litter law (FS 403.413) makes dumping litter unlawful, with a $150 civil penalty for small non-commercial loads and misdemeanor or felony charges for larger amounts.
Chapter 19 (Section 19-2) prohibits discarding, abandoning, or accumulating garbage, junk, rubbish, sludge, or solid waste in the unincorporated county except at duly authorized disposal sites, and Section 19-4(n) bars accumulating waste on your property or the adjacent right-of-way. Loads must be secured during transport so nothing drops or blows off (Section 19-3). Statewide, FS 403.413 (the Florida Litter Law) makes it unlawful to dump litter in any manner or amount. Non-commercial dumping of 15 pounds or less is a noncriminal infraction ($150 civil penalty); over 15 up to 500 pounds is a first-degree misdemeanor; larger or commercial dumping escalates to a felony. Report dumping to Osceola County Code Enforcement or the Sheriff's Office.
FS 403.413: $150 civil penalty (≤15 lbs); first-degree misdemeanor (15–500 lbs); third-degree felony (>500 lbs or commercial). County code enforcement adds fines up to $250/day (first) or $500/day (repeat).
