Took my trash yesterday. I went around 1p and there was not much traffic. The only negatives I have are that I wish they had longer hours and that the staff would help. My mother and I took our dish washer about a month ago. We are small women (only 5'2") and my mother is in her 70s. Staff would not help us get it out of the car. Took us some time, but we eventually got it out of the vehicle. If you see 2 women struggling, it would be nice if you would offer to help.

Easy, quick in and out. Was able to take all my wood scraps for a project and they had a section specifically for that. Glad to have this service nearby. Thanks, Knox County!

can older tube tv be disposed

Samuel Stone | Nov 1, 2019
Dutchtown Convenience Center - Knox County Solid Waste | Nov 1, 2019

Yes, they go in with regular trash. If the television is a console or rear projection television, we strongly recommend taking them to the City's Transfer Station, located at 1033 Elm Street (just off Baxter Ave.). At the County facilities, you will need to lift the television over a 4 foot wall of the receiver box. Larger televisions such as console or rear projection are heavy and often too large for our equipment. There is a fee associated with using the Transfer Station, but you will be able to push large, heavy items off the vehicle instead of lifting.

Can you take D batteries?

Logan Watson | Nov 1, 2019
Dutchtown Convenience Center - Knox County Solid Waste | Nov 1, 2019

Regular alkaline batteries, like D batteries, are safe to place in with your regular trash. If you'd like to recycle them, you can bring them to the UT Public Recycling Drop-off, located at 2121 Stephenson Drive, Dock 24.
