Another state falls to the Amazon tax collectors. They will start adding the tax on purchases May 1, 2014 even though their facilities will not be open until end of the year. One facility in Lakeland will pack and ship large items, such as kayaks and televisions. The other in Ruskin (Hillsborough County) will handle smaller items, ranging from books to electronics and consumer goods.
