Pick Up and Drop Off
Pick Up for Registered Participants
If you require scrap tire pick up please call 1.866.497.0281
Drop Off for Consumers
In the majority of cases consumers take back their old tires to the retailer when they purchase new ones. However, in some cases consumers will keep their old tires at home. Tire Stewardship BC provides two solutions for disposal of these tires:
The Return to Retailer program
This program provides consumers a free option to return orphan tires to participating retailers so they do not end up in landfills.
This is a year round program for consumers who can drop off up to four passenger light truck tires, clean and off rim during the retailer's business hours.
Please click here for the list of participating retailers and locate one in your area. This list will be updated as more retailers volunteer to participate.
Tire Round Ups
Each year Tire Stewardship BC holds tire round up events at various locations throughout the province. The schedule for these events is usually available in April of each year and the locations will be posted on the web site. In 2011 we are running pilot joint roundup event with other product stewards such as e-waste, oil and paint to provide a one stop drop for consumers. If these events are successful we will hold more going forward and we fully expect the list of participating stewards will grow.
