Seaside Disposal

Seaside Disposal runs a subscription trash and recycling pickup service across the Lower Cape -- Brewster, Orleans, Eastham, Truro, Harwich, and Wellfleet -- built for both year-round homes and the second-home and rental-turnover crowd that defines Cape Cod summers. The company says customers have counted on it for trash removal since 2009, added as a line under its affiliated Seaside Services, which it describes as running Lower Cape property management and cleaning since 1990. What stands out in its record isn't the routine reliability -- it's a story about the exception to it. A 2025 reviewer in Truro described owner Scott offering to cover her trash service for free after her husband passed away, until she could move, and called the crew reliable, friendly, and respectful throughout. A more recent review, from June 2026, simply calls it a 'local favorite.' That said, the record isn't spotless: a 2022 review described being repeatedly skipped on weekly pickups with no makeup collection, and said billing questions went unanswered for weeks -- enough to send that customer to a competitor. Google shows a 4.4-star average from 5 ratings overall. Before signing up, it's worth confirming current pickup days for your specific street and how the company handles a missed collection, since the one detailed complaint on file was about exactly that.
