The Washington County Department of Environmental Management announces that there will be a free scrap tire day on October 14, from 8 a.m.-2:30 p.m. at the Forty West Landfill.
This event is provided for Washington County residents only and there is no charge to drop off up to 10 tires for residents of the same household. Passenger and light truck tires will be accepted on or off the rim.
