Recycling in Frisco, Texas

Frisco recycling is a weekly pickup by Waste Connections, on the same day as trash, in a 95-gallon blue cart. The city says bagging is no longer part of the program, and anything left outside the cart is not collected. An overloaded cart is skipped too. Appliances and loose metal go out on your scheduled Wednesday or Thursday before 7 a.m., and the city adds $15 to the next utility bill. Texas has no bottle deposit. Government-issued ID required for regulated metals including copper and catalytic converters.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I set out the Frisco recycling cart?

By 7 a.m. on the trash day, at least 3 feet from obstacles, handle toward the house so the lid opens away from the street. Follow the pictures on the lid. Do not bag the recyclables. Items outside the cart, and an overloaded cart, are not collected.

What does Frisco take, and what stays out?

Aluminum and steel cans, cardboard, catalogs, cereal and dry-food boxes, envelopes, glass bottles and jars, greeting cards, junk mail, magazines, newspapers, colored and white paper, phone books, plastic bottles and jugs, and shredded paper. Leave out foil, aerosol cans, ceramic cookware, household hazardous waste, packing peanuts, paper towels, pizza boxes, polystyrene foam, tissue paper, wood, pallets, fencing, yard waste, plastic bags and film, and glass furniture or cookware.
