Knox Mayor Announces Dumpster Days

Mayor Dennis Estok announced the City of Knox’s Spring Clean-Up “Dumpster Days” will be held later this month.

The mayor stated during Tuesday’s city council meeting, the Dumpster Days will run on Saturday, April 29 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, April 30 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT.

Dumpsters will be located in Wythogan Park at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. City of Knox residents may discard large bulky items that cannot be picked up on normal garbage days.

Regular trash, yard waste, tires, electronics, refrigerators or any items that contain Freon, paint of any kind, household hazardous waste, and medical waste will not be accepted.

This service is provided for Knox residents only. Businesses and contractors will not be allowed to discard any material. If you have any questions, please contact Mayor Dennis Estok’s office at 772-4553.
