This is a community event organized and hosted by the Tennessee Environmental Council (TEC) and local environmental supporters. Residents may drop off certain hard-to-recycle items, such as tires, mattresses, scrap metal, and Styrofoam, to be recycled free of charge.TEC aims to improve Tennessee’s environment and communities by reducing litter, illegal dumping, and landfill reliance, while supporting recycling. Funded by an EPA environmental justice grant and TDOT funding, we aim to help residents sustain these events in their own communities.
