CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Tire collection events are being held this month in two West Virginia counties, the state Department of Environmental Protection said.
A collection event in Summers County will be held from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday on Grace Street next to Gore’s Auto Body in Hinton.
The second event will be in Greenbrier County from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 27 at the Greenbrier County Landfill in Lewisburg.
The department’s Rehabilitation Environmental Action Plan is hosting the collection events.
Each person may dispose of up to 10 tires, which must be off the rims. Only car and light truck tires will be accepted. People dropping off tires should stay in the vehicles when dropping off tires to help limit the spread of COVID-19, the agency said.
Upcoming tire collection events and updates can be found on the department’s website.
