The Montgomery County Solid Waste District’s farm tire recovery program will be held from December 1-3, 2011.  Farm vehicle tires without rims will be accepted for disposal FREE of charge at both the North and South Solid Waste Facilities during these dates.  Montgomery County’s farming community is encouraged to take full advantage of this free service and properly dispose of all their old implement tires.

This program is offered free of charge for Montgomery County residents only.  From December 1 through 3, the Solid Waste District is not limiting the number of farm tires brought in for disposal at the North and South Solid Waste Facilities, but a driver’s license will be required to establish proof of Montgomery County residency.  In addition, please note that the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) requires a “Tire Manifest” for anyone transporting more than 10 tires per load.

Montgomery County’s North Solid Waste Facility is located at 6589 Old Webster Street in Vandalia and the South Solid Waste Facility is located at 1001 Encrete Lane in Moraine.  Hours of operation for both locations are Monday – Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.  For additional information regarding the Farm Tire Recovery Program call 225-4999 between the hours of 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday or visit www.mcswd.org.
