Tire Recycling Event

Proper disposal of tires is essential for protecting our environment and local ecosystems. Abandoned or improperly discarded tires can collect water, creating ideal breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other pests that spread disease. They also pose a fire hazard, releasing harmful pollutants when burned.

By offering this annual tire recycling event, we help reduce illegal dumping, prevent contamination of soil and waterways, and promote responsible waste management. Recycling tires ensures they are repurposed into useful materials like playground surfaces, roadways, and fuel, reducing landfill waste and supporting a more sustainable community.
