Boca Raton, FL – Tire Amnesty Week will be held Monday, June 3 through Friday, June 7, 2019. The City of Boynton Beach Solid Waste Division will pick up unwanted tires on residents’ regularly scheduled bulk trash day for FREE.
Residents may place up to eight used tires (with or without rims) at the curb for pick up after 6:00 pm the day before pickup or by 6:00 am on the pickup day. Tires must be placed at the edge of the road, separated from vegetation, at least three feet from garbage cans and any other fixtures, such as telephone poles, mailboxes, etc.
“Tire Amnesty Week has been tremendously popular because it not only offers residents a convenient way to dispose of tires, it also enables the City to recycle tires rather than dispose of them in a landfill, which would pose both environmental and health concerns,” according to Davidson Monestime, the City’s Solid Waste Manager. “During last year’s June Tire Amnesty Week, approximately 2.2 tons of tires were collected from our residents.”
Commercial properties desiring to have tires picked up may call the Public Works Department at 561-742-6200 or email PWAdmin@bbfl.us to obtain associated fees.
