The Knoxville City-Wide clean up has been set for the week of June 2. City Manager Harold Stewart says the contract with Midwest Sanitation calls for pickup throughout the week, to be completed by Friday, June 6. Knoxville residents are to have all appropriate materials on the curb by 7 am on Monday, June 2, and once the trucks have gone by, they will not return. The City also anticipates that there will be a lot of material on the curb for pickup, and asks for patience throughout the week, until pickup is completed.
