Utilities, Mail & Getting Set Up

Power, water, trash, internet, and the Florida license timeline.

Power & water

Florida Power & Light (FPL) is the electric utility. Water, sewer, and trash are typically through the City of Palm Coast if you’re inside city limits — set them up with your closing documents, not after the truck arrives. Some gated communities bill through the association.

Internet

Spectrum and a handful of fiber builds cover most sections; availability is street-specific. Order two weeks out. The original ITT grid was not designed for everyone’s Zoom call at 9 a.m., but it has caught up in most tracts.

Florida ID & vehicles

You generally have 30 days after becoming a resident to get a Florida driver license and register vehicles. Bring your out-of-state license, proof of residence, and VIN. Flagler’s tax collector handles plates; book a slot rather than walking in on a Monday.
