Knox
County
The chart above describes the amount of materials taken to landfills and
the amount that was recycled in 2005 in Knox County. Class III/IV
landfills are construction and demolition landfills that accept waste
specifically from the construction or destruction of a building. Class I landfills are the ones
that accept municipal solid waste, better known as the trash or garbage
that we toss out on a daily basis.
The amount recycled in this graph includes numbers reported from
both public and private entities.
The information for the graph came from Knox County’s Solid Waste
office.
NOTE: THE TOTALS REPRESENT THOUSANDS OF TONS, SO 471 = 471,000 TONS,
NOT 471 TONS.
