just wondering if anyone knows of a place around the midland, bay city, or saginaw area where i can take old tires that i have and get rid of? got a few old ones sittin out back and here next weekend i will have another 10 tires off a 75 flatbed truck im scraping from my work. was just going to leave the tires on but since its a semi tire its $10 a tire they take off my total so i dont want to lose $100 off my total
thanks
Cut them up into quarters and put them in a trash bags.
sounds like a lot of work cuz these tires arent small.
almost to coleman on saginaw rd there is a place that you pay to leave them there alot cheaper than the landfill they take them and grind them up into rubber mulch (playground) used to be like an old lumber yard ? car tires you pay more for larger tires. they take them on or off rims for more $$
cm rubber tech 4602 west saginaw rd coleman 1989 465 0200
Take a utility knife and cut the sidewalls away from the tread and you can just throw them in the garbage. Its pretty easy to do I've literally done thousands of them.
i use sawszall on my semi tires. you need to take bi metal blade and lay it flat grind it like a knife blade you can cut like 6 tires on one blade. once you cut both side wall you put them in garbage.

yea it used to be the old saw mill untill about 02-03 then it closed down. i used to live a quarter mile down the road from it. now im on the other side of town a mile from the shell station ;D and i think it cost $1.50 and up per tire ??? and also depends on the size
Or just go to detroit and loose em on a side street like they all do loll j/k
some farms may take them as sidewall weights on their bunker silos

X 2 done lots thos way too
got a friend who is a farmer that i guess is going to take them since they are pretty much brand new. so that takes care of having to get rid of them. thanks for the replys tho
