Part of: Dollar Tree Florida health inspections, violations & closures

Overview

Dollar Tree #08408 in Orlando had 2 inspections on record between June 2023 and April 2025, documenting 16 violations across both visits. The facility received a high-priority citation in June 2023 after lighters, glue tubes, and antibacterial wipes were found stored on a retail shelf directly above energy drinks; the items were removed and stored properly during the inspection. A recurring intermediate-priority violation appeared in both inspections: the establishment lacked written procedures for cleaning up vomit and diarrhea, with industry guidance provided each time. The facility also failed to maintain a food temperature measuring device accessible for use in both inspections — no stem probe thermometer was available in June 2023 and only a thin-tip thermometer was unavailable in April 2025. The most recent inspection on April 24, 2025 resulted in a "Met Sanitation Inspection Requirements" disposition.
