The easiest way to get rid of your old tyres

Although old tyres can be reused as swings, garden planters, or construction materials, most people end up stacking them in the garage or leaving them by the rubbish bins. Unfortunately, regular waste services usually don’t accept old tyres, leaving them to linger in your space.

Tyre disposal and recycling FAQs

Is there a limit to how many tyres you will take?

Nope! We offer bulk tyre removal and commercial site cleanouts. Whether it’s a few tyres or a full truckload, we can handle large volumes efficiently. 

How do I know if tyre removal is available in my city?

Contact us to see if tyre removal is offered by your local franchise. If it is, you can rest assured that our teams are fully trained in local environmental regulations and responsible tyre disposal. 

What kind of non-hazardous auto parts do you take besides tyres?

We can take scrap metal, old car seats, spare parts, and most other items cluttering up your garage. If you’re unsure whether we can take a particular item, just reach out, and we’ll let you know. 

Are rubber tyres recyclable?

Yes! Tyres can — and should — be recycled. They’re made of synthetic and non-synthetic rubber, wires, and fabric that don’t decompose on their own. When left in landfills, tyre piles take up space and resources, and burning them releases harmful toxins into the environment.

Recycling old tyres is the safest and most responsible way to dispose of them. They can be reused or upcycled, with recycling facilities handling the breakdown and processing of materials.   

If you have a pile of used tyres that you want to remove, our friendly 1800-GOT-JUNK? crew is in your neighbourhood and happy to help! Call today to check availability in your area, and get a free, no-obligation estimate.

How do I properly dispose of tyres?

Recycling is the most responsible way to dispose of your tyres, as they’re made from non-biodegradable, flammable material that can harm the environment if left in landfills.

Here are some of the best ways to dispose of old tyres:

• Bring them to a general or specialized tyre recycling facility.
• Leave them with a retailer.
• Drop them off at a tyre shop (for a fee).
• Join a local, hard-to-recycle community collection event.
• Call a tyre disposal service to pick them up and take them to a recycling center.

Contact 1800-GOT-JUNK? for the easiest disposal option. We’ll pick up your old tyres and recycle them whenever possible, keeping both your property and the environment clean. 

Where can I throw away or recycle tyres?

There are a few places that can help you recycle old tyres or dispose of them responsibly. Consider taking them to:

• Local general and specialized tyre recycling facilities
• Tyre retail stores (for a fee)
• Auto shops
• Dumps that accept used tyres

Want the fastest solution? Let us handle it. We’ll remove your tyres from wherever they’re located, load them into our truck, and dispose of them responsibly. Contact us to see how your local team can help. 

What happens to recycled tyres?

To recycle a tyre, it must first be broken down into its components (rubber, steel, wires, and fabric), which each undergo their own recycling process.

Recycled rubber can be used to create construction materials, playground equipment, and athletic tracks, while the other components are used as fuel supplements in industries like cement and pulp.

If you have old tyres at home, let 1800-GOT-JUNK? take care of them for you. We’ll pick them up and dispose of them responsibly–all you have to do is point!

Can tyres be thrown in a skip bin?

If you think you can throw tyres into the trash, you’re wrong. Many councils do not allow used tyres or tyre parts to be placed in bins for rubbish collection. Tyres are made from non-biodegradable materials that do not break down in landfills and can cause damage to the environment.

If you’re going to dispose of your old tyres on your own, you’ll need to check with your local council or recycling facility to see if they accept them.

We haul and recycle all types of tyres and tyre parts, including:
