Please follow these guidelines to ensure the best service possible:

  • Frontier Waste will provide each residence a green cart for refuse and a blue cart with yellow lid for recycling.
  • If you wish to use additional blue refuse carts, you may order them by calling 972-287-2050. There is a minimal monthly charge for each additional cart.
  • PROPER CART PLACEMENT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. Please roll your cart within 2 feet of the edge of the street by 7:00 am. Make sure the handles are facing your house, so that when the cart is lifted, the lid opens toward the street. Please check to see that it is not obstructed by parked cars, boats, etc. Also please be sure to place the cart at least three feet way from any other carts placed at the curb for collection. 
  • Your cart must be at the curb by 7:00 am on designated pick-up days, or you may set your cart out the night before.
  • All trash must be bagged, and placed inside the provided green refuse cart.
  • Yard waste, tree trimmings, and branches must fit inside the green refuse cart. If you have more than can fit inside the cart, prepare it for the bulk item pickup. Brush should be four feet or less in length, with branches no more than three inches in diameter, weighing less than 40 pounds, and in a neatly stacked pile.
  • Bulk collections are same day as the trash and recycle day
  • The City of Seagoville participates in a Hazardous Household Chemical Waste disposal program with Dallas County. This service is free to Seagoville residents. For details follow this link: Dallas County Hazardous Household Waste
