Dumpster Rental Planning in Halls
Halls Crossroads, known locally as Halls, grew up where Emory Road crosses Maynardville Pike in north Knox County and takes its name from the Thomas Hall family who settled there in the late 1700s. We deliver roll-off dumpsters throughout Halls; confirm the address and date when you call (865) 309-5305.
Halls is unincorporated, so Knox County rules apply rather than City of Knoxville services. Many homes sit on ridge slopes or on larger lots off Maynardville Pike, Emory Road, and Andersonville Pike. Common jobs are basement and garage cleanouts, deck replacements, kitchen remodels, and clearing out family homes before a sale.
Starting prices include 2 tons on the 10, 15, and 20-yard sizes and 3 tons on the 30-yard, with seven rental days. Weight over the allowance is $85 per ton and extra days are $15 each. Call ahead for dirt, gravel, or concrete from a patio or driveway project.

Permits and right-of-way
Outside Knoxville city limits, roads are generally Knox County or state routes. Knox County Engineering & Public Works issues permits for work in the county right-of-way and says permits are reviewed within 30 days, so check with the department at 205 W. Baxter Ave, (865) 215-5800, before any part of a container, ramp, or truck sits in the road.
Building permits for remodels outside the city come from Knox County Code Administration, Suite 547, City County Building, 400 Main St, (865) 215-2325.
Maynardville Pike (State Route 33) and Emory Road are state routes, so keep containers on private property along them.
Disposal and drop-off sites
The Halls Convenience Center, 3608 Neal Dr is the closest county drop-off. Knox County lists convenience center hours as Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., closed Wednesdays, Sundays, and holidays. Centers are free for Knox County residents bringing their own household waste. Contractors, businesses, and people hauling from rental properties are sent to facilities that charge disposal fees. Knox County Solid Waste: (865) 215-5865.
Knox County's DIY demolition program accepts one 5' x 8' pickup load per day of homeowner remodeling debris such as drywall, doors, carpet, and windows. It does not take block, brick, dirt, gravel, sand, stone, or shingles.
Fee-based options include Chestnut Ridge Landfill in Heiskell and the City of Knoxville transfer station at 1033 Elm St, which charges $70 per ton for construction debris and does not take loads over 4 tons.
Brush and yard waste
Knox County convenience centers do not accept greenwaste such as limbs, brush, stumps, and leaves. The county points residents to fee-based private greenwaste facilities, landscapers, or burning with a permit from Knox County Air Quality Management (865) 215-5900. County guidance asks that brush piles stay under 10 by 10 by 10 feet and be cleared within six months.
Recycling and hazardous waste
Keep Knoxville Beautiful lists the Halls center among the county centers that accept some extra recyclables. Household hazardous waste such as paint, solvents, and pool chemicals goes to the City of Knoxville Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 1033 Elm St, which serves both city and Knox County residents. Call (865) 215-6710 for hours. Paint, liquids, and batteries are not allowed in our dumpsters.
Scrap metal can go free to the Elm St transfer station or to CMC Recycling Knoxville, 2706 Mynderse Ave NW, (865) 867-7364. Pulling metal and clean concrete out of a mixed load helps you stay inside the weight allowance.
Local context
Halls is a census-designated place, not a city, even though many people assume it is inside Knoxville. If your tax bill shows no City of Knoxville levy, county rules apply.
