Why is proper tire disposal important?
Proper disposal through recycling or responsible processing helps minimize risks, including:
- Unwanted pests: Stagnant water collecting in old tires can become breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
- Soil and water pollution: As tires decompose, they can release harmful chemicals into the environment.
- Excessive landfill space: Tires don't decompose easily and consume landfill space unnecessarily.
Can Junk King dispose of all types of tires?
Yes, Junk King takes all types of tires, regardless of size or condition. We accept car, truck, motorcycle, trailer, ATV and even lawn mower tires.
Do I need to remove tires from rims before disposal?
No, you don't need to remove the tires from the rims before our arrival. Our crews are equipped to handle tires with or without rims. However, if you have loose lug nuts, hubcaps, or other metal components attached, please remove them — we’re happy to take care of the tire portion.
What happens to the tires after pickup?
Junk King prioritizes eco-friendly disposal methods. Whenever possible, we recycle tires into new products such as rubber mulch, tire-derived fuel, or even new tires! In rare cases where recycling isn't feasible, tires are disposed of in landfills that meet strict environmental regulations.
