KUB's Hauled Waste Program allows domestic waste haulers from Knox County and the surrounding eight counties to discharge domestic waste at the Kuwahee Wastewater Treatment Plant near Downtown Knoxville.

Associated Costs

Each permitted truck is billed annually for access to the Hauled Waste Site.

Each truck is also billed monthly at a 90% capacity per discharge using KUB's business wastewater rate schedule, Holding Tank and Special Waste Charges.
