City of Knoxville Solid Waste Facility

City of Knoxville Solid Waste Facility is where locals drop off household trash, recyclables and yard debris rather than putting bulk items at the curb. Neighbors from around Knoxville use this spot when getting rid of stuff from a garage cleanout or yard work. It looks like a working municipal site, not a storefront-expect a practical, no-frills setup.

Drive up to a small entrance area with a booth or gate where vehicles pause before heading into the compound. The site is mostly open concrete and gravel piles with separate zones for different kinds of material, so follow the painted arrows and signs once inside. Big trucks and trailers come through, and weekends-especially in spring-tend to get backed up, so lines are common. Vehicles usually pull up to drop-off points and then leave the property after unloading.
