Tyre Disposal Service in Watford

As you are probably already aware, it is illegal to send tyres to landfill sites in the UK and there are heavy fines for non-compliance. This EU Landfill Directive has been in place since 2006 and has helped the UK progress to nearly 100% of waste tyres being recovered and recycled. This was implemented with the aim of helping UK towards becoming a zero waste economy as tyre recycling comes under the prerogative of reusing valuable resources wherever possible. This helps reduce the negative impact on the environment.

Recycled tyre materials are reused in a variety of goods from outdoor running tracks, sports pitches and carpet and flooring underlays, just to name a few.

Why do you need to hire a professional tyre disposal service?

You cannot put harmful items into skips such as tyres, paints and paint tines, asbestos, gas cylinders etc. Depending on the size of the tyre you could try transporting your old tyre on your own. However you will have to first locate a recycling centre close to you and then check with your local council as there maybe a limit to the number you can take. You may have to pay a small fee.

Especially if you are in a business there are heavy fines for being in possession of more tyres than allowed without a permit. Enlisting the help of a professional tyre disposal service helps you comply with relevant regulations as they will be able to handle the removal, logistics and transport to recycling centres.

For homeowners and households you are supposed to take ‘all reasonable measures’ to guarantee the used tyres are disposed of correctly and through the correct channels, such as using registered waste carriers. You should also be aware of the correct legal requirements for storing tyres, so they are not a fire risk. As tyres are innately combustible and cause damage to the environment and people by releasing chemicals they have to be stored correctly. This is why it is smart to have a professional removal service dispose of the tyres for you, quickly and properly.
