By counting Trulieve, Curaleaf, MÜV, Sunburn, The Flowery, Surterra, VidaCann, Sanctuary, RISE, Liberty Health Sciences, Fluent (Cansortium), GrowHealthy, Ayr, Goodblend, and Jungle Boys storefronts plus drive-thru and delivery hubs, Miami-Dade sits well into the 40-to-55 dispensary range depending on how border facilities (Pembroke Pines, Hallandale, Hollywood) are counted.

OMMU has not published a county-level dispensary count in any of its weekly highlights through April 2026; ⚠️ this number changes every week as new locations open. The figure on this page is reconciled monthly against operator websites.

What to Expect on a First MMTC Visit

First-time Miami-Dade MMTC visits follow a consistent pattern across operators:

  1. Check-in at reception with MMUR card and government photo ID. The MMTC queries OMMU MMUR in real time to verify allocation.
  2. Patient consultation room — bilingual budtenders are standard at major Miami-Dade locations. Spanish-language access.
  3. Product menu walkthrough — flower, vape, edibles, capsules, tinctures, suppositories, topicals. New patients typically work with the budtender on a starting plan.
  4. Cash payment, debit-routed-as-cash, or in-store ATM. Major card networks (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) prohibit cannabis purchases. Some MMTCs accept ACH or proprietary “cashless ATM” debit-routing.
  5. Discreet packaging — sealed, labeled, branded. Patients receive an itemized receipt.

Pricing — Miami-Dade Patterns

Prices in Miami-Dade are competitive across the major operators, with operator-specific promotions running constantly. Indicative starting points (April 2026, before promotions and discounts):

  • 1/8 oz (3.5 g) flower: $25–$45 at major operators
  • 1/4 oz (7 g) flower: $45–$80
  • 1 oz (28 g) flower: $150–$280
  • 0.5 g vape cartridge: $30–$55
  • 1 g vape cartridge: $50–$90
  • Edible package (100 mg total THC): $20–$35
  • Tincture (300 mg THC): $35–$55

Promo discounts are heavy. Curaleaf offers 20% veteran and 40% pediatric. Trulieve offers first-time-patient discounts. The Flowery’s first delivery is free for new patients. Sunburn runs a tiered “Buy More Save More” structure.

Same-Day Delivery

Every major operator offers same-day or next-day delivery within Miami-Dade, with $50–$100 minimum orders typical. See the delivery page.

Hours and Holidays

Most Miami-Dade MMTCs operate 9 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday–Saturday, 10 a.m.–7 p.m. Sunday, with variation by location. Major holidays vary by operator. The day before Thanksgiving and the day before any National Hurricane Center cone of uncertainty are typically the highest-volume sales days of the year in Miami-Dade.

Federal Banking Reality

Florida MMTCs operate cash-heavily because federal banking law (FinCEN cannabis guidance) bars most banks from extending normal services to cannabis-touching businesses without enhanced reporting. State-chartered Florida banks and credit unions provide some MMTC banking, but MMTCs still maintain sizable cash floats. This affects patient experience — on-site ATMs, occasional cashless-ATM debit-routing, no Visa/MasterCard at most locations.
