Pilot Recycling Program Needs Your Input
You may have noticed recycling containers on the streets of downtown Knoxville. These are a result of a pilot
recycling program by the City of Knoxville and Waste Connections.
The project features receptacles located at approximately 20
different locations downtown for recyclable material including aluminum
cans, bottles, glass containers, plastic cups and mixed paper among
other items.
The pilot effort is aimed primarily at people who work and visit
downtown who would like to be able to recycle a can or a newspaper
rather than just throw it away. It is not a curbside program for
residents who live in the center city.
The bins have been in downtown Knoxville for a few months, and the City
of Knoxville is conducting a survey to determine the future of these
receptacles. Please complete this short survey to help
guide the future of recycling in downtown Knoxville.
