Trash & Recycling Services Contractor Update

SIPOA will be using a new service provider this year for trash, recycling, and yard debris pickup.  Beginning on February 2, 2026, Sandlapper Waste will provide trash and recycling collection services on Seabrook Island.  The collection schedule will be mostly the same, with yard debris collection being moved to Wednesday and Villa and Regime recycle pickup on Tuesdays.  The annual collection schedule is attached for your reference. 

  • January 26th will be the last day for trash pickup with our current provider, and they will be taking the trash carts away on this date
  • Please make sure your trash cart is placed on the curb, regardless of whether it has trash in it or not, on January 26th
  • New trash carts will be delivered during the week of January 27th
  • The recycle carts will remain and will not be changed. 
  • Regimes with trash corals and/or backdoor service will have new trash carts delivered during the week of January 7th as well.
  • If your trash cart is not picked up by January 27th, please email trash@sipoa.org and provide the address and location of the trash cart. 
  • The trash carts are 90-gallon size, which is the same size as the current carts.  This is the only size trash cart that will be provided by SIPOA; however, residents are allowed to use their own cart if they prefer a different size. 
  • ARC and the Town will suspend enforcement of trash carts being left on the curb during the week of 1-26-26.  Please plan to have your new cart stored properly by 2-1-26. 
  • The procedure for reporting any missed collection or requesting a new roll cart is still the same and all requests should be emailed to trash@sipoa.org
