Curbside Recycling

It may be hard to accept paying for recycling, especially if you are new to Knoxville from a city with free curbside recycling. But, if you are someone who doesn’t get around to taking your recyclables to the centers, paying for curbside pick-up may be worth it.  City residents can pay less than $10 a month for Waste Connections curbside service. It is a great way to recycle without much effort. City Residents click on “City of Knoxville” below. Knox County residents can do the same if you use Waste Connections for your trash service.
