Southeast Aquatics Trash is the waste-collection side of Southeast Aquatics Group — the company that's built, renovated, and maintained pools and amenity centers for North Carolina neighborhoods for over ten years.
Wait — why “Aquatics”? Our roots are in pools. Working inside hundreds of HOAs and clubhouses, we kept seeing the same thing: overflowing bins, missed pickups, and haulers no one could reach. So we started our own trash company to fix it — same local team, same standards, now handling your trash too. (That's the shark's story, too.)
We're not a national brand with a call center three states away. We're your neighbors, and we treat every street like it's one we live on.

Early feedback from local property managers, shown with first names.
Get a few homes on the same street signed up and everyone saves. The more of your block that joins, the better the rate for all of you. Trash pickup is easier — and cheaper — when the neighborhood does it together.

Our roots are in pools. Southeast Aquatics Trash grew out of Southeast Aquatics Group, which has maintained pools and amenity centers for North Carolina neighborhoods for over ten years. Working inside those communities, we kept seeing overflowing bins, missed pickups and haulers nobody could reach — so we started our own trash company to fix it. Same local team, same standards, now handling your trash too. (That's where the shark comes from, too.)
Residential weekly pickup starts at $50/mo for one cart, with your 96-gallon cart, fuel, and standard fees included. Use the plan builder above to see your exact price by cart count and billing cycle — a one-time $25 startup fee covers cart delivery. HOA and commercial properties get a custom proposal.
It's rare — but if it happens, our Never-Miss Guarantee means you reach a real person and we come back to make it right, fast. No week-long wait, no runaround.
Yes. You'll get a completion alert by text or email when your pickup is done. And if you ever want to know where we are, we can tell you how many stops away our crew is — or that we've already hit your street.
Cart valet is our hands-free valet option. For an extra $25/mo, we come to your property, set your cart out on pickup day, and return it after — you never touch it. It's popular with seniors, busy families, and communities.
No. The price you see is the price you pay, with fuel and standard fees already included — no surprise environmental fees and no annual surcharge letters. And you're never locked in long-term — cancel anytime. We'd rather earn your business each week.
We serve Wake, Durham, Orange, Johnston, Franklin & Harnett Counties, and we're still expanding. Not sure if we reach your street? Just give us a call and we'll confirm in seconds.
Tell us a little about your service and we'll get right back to you — usually the same day.
Takes about a minute.
