A scrap tire, also referred to as a waste tire, is a tire that is no longer suitable for its original intended purpose because of wear, damage or defect. Scrap tires are generated when and where new tires replace unusable ones. Retailers, also known as scrap tire collection centers, are the most common type of generator. Scrap tire haulers transport the scrap tires to processing facilities where the tires are reduced in volume by shredding, cutting, buffing, chipping, baling or otherwise altered so they can be recycled, used for resource recovery or disposed.
For general information about scrap tire management, visit Scrap Tires. For compliance information, please contact the department's regional office in your area. For information about applying for a permit, visit Scrap Tire Processing Facility Permit.
