Riverside C&D Landfill in Knoxville is the large burial site for construction and demolition debris and other landfill-appropriate loads. Locals and contractors both use it for final disposal; it’s the kind of place people bring trailer loads after demo or contractors tipping off trucks.

A big, open property with driving lanes and a scale house near the entrance; large trucks and roll-offs are common. Expect to stop at the scale - tipping fees are typically assessed by weight or by load type at landfills like this, with a different rate structure for commercial versus residential loads. The drop area is spread out, with compactors or heavy equipment working the cell areas and a mound of cover material nearby. Weekends and spring cleanup times can get busy, so there may be a short queue to get weighed and to find a place to tip.

Before You Go

  • Bring a way to secure loose material in trailers; wind can scatter debris and workers won’t re-load it for you.
  • Have paperwork or job information readily available if hauling commercial loads, since commercial haulers often have different billing or record requirements.
  • Arrive with a clear plan for where to drop material-watch for heavy equipment and follow flaggers or posted traffic flow to avoid backtracking.
