Tires Recycling Near Me

Tires can't go in regular trash or recycling in most places. Tire shops will usually take old tires when you buy new ones (often for a small fee), and many counties hold tire collection days or accept tires at transfer stations for a per-tire fee.

How to prepare tires for recycling

Take tires off their rims — many sites won't accept tires on rims, or charge extra.
Check the limit per visit and ask about fees, which are often charged per tire and higher for truck or oversized tires.
Bring proof of residency if the site is municipal.
