RECYCLING & WASTE REDUCTION

Keep Sevier Beautiful

Sevier County generates 119,350 tons of garbage per year. 

What’s YOUR impact?

 

Keep Sevier Beautiful believes that every person in our County can impact the amount of waste through two ways – in the selection of the products you choose to buy and how you choose to dispose of it once you’re finished.

We have a state of the art composting facility in our County where 60% of our municipal solid waste is turned into compost.  However, our plastics and metals thrown into the waste stream are not compostable and are landfilled.  Both of these commodities are recyclable and should be separated out of our waste stream.

Recycling not only conserves our natural resources, reduces the need for landfills and saves energy, but it also reduces pollution.  Learn more about where to recycle your materials in Sevier County.
