The county
Where would a Seminole County vendor drive?
Sanford is the county seat and the largest of Seminole's seven cities, with 67,483 residents in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate, ahead of Altamonte Springs, Oviedo and Winter Springs.
Fewer than half of Seminole's 491,884 residents (47%) live outside a city, the lowest share of the three core counties. It also grew the least of the three between 2020 and 2025, by 4.5%.
Seminole County borders four other counties in 1Stop's region: Brevard, Lake, Orange and Volusia. The application takes every Florida county you will drive to, so list them all.

Getting set up
What does a vendor need to work in Seminole County?
Seminole County levies a local business tax, collected by its tax collector. A business that needs a county, state or federal license gets the regulated kind of receipt. A state-licensed business shows the license first (section 205.194).
A contractor the state licenses through DBPR that has paid the business tax where its business is based owes no other city or county a business tax for temporary work there (section 205.065).
Building permits for unincorporated Seminole County go through the county's Building Division.
A registered contractor can work only where its registration applies, so for work here it has to cover Seminole County; a certified one works anywhere in Florida. 1Stop holds the license on file in the licensed trades, with a certificate of insurance and a W-9 for everyone.

Landscaping and irrigation
When can a lawn be watered in Seminole County?
Seminole County's fertilizer ordinance bars fertilizer containing nitrogen or phosphorus from June 1 through September 30.
Fertilizers carrying iron, manganese and other micronutrients, the summer blends, can still go on during the restricted season.
The county adopted the ordinance as a condition of its stormwater (MS4) permit, because summer rain washes fertilizer off yards and into the lakes and rivers before plants can take it up.
Seminole County lies in the St. Johns River Water Management District, whose year-round rule bans watering between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and sets the days by the address: two a week in daylight saving time, one in standard time.
