Used Tire Disposal Solutions for Eco-Minded Homes

Old tires are a pollution risk. Stop the tire clutter & pollution! Recycle your old tires responsibly for a cleaner planet, or upcycle them at home. Get green with Phoenix Rubber!

It’s usually a good day when your car gets new tires, but what about the old ones? Tire scraps are a large, non-biodegradable, and enduring environmental issue. In actuality, they present serious risks to public health because they collect rainfall, which makes them perfect for mosquitoes and other pests to breed.

It is not an option for the environmentally conscious homeowner to just leave old tires lying around the garage or hope that they will be picked up by a regular trash pickup. Disposing of used tires responsibly is a commitment to a cleaner, greener community, not just a convenience issue. At Phoenix Rubber, we think that your tire’s time on the road should end with the start of its next phase as a valuable resource.

The Environmental Need for Appropriate Tire Recycling

Tires are intricate products composed of fiber, steel, natural rubber, and synthetic rubber. They take up a lot of space and can take centuries to decompose if disposed of improperly, like in landfills. Even worse, tire piles and unlawful dumping pose serious fire risks, releasing harmful chemicals and smoke into the ground and air.

Selecting tire recycling services completely reduces these risks. Recycling successfully closes the loop on a difficult waste stream by converting used tires into materials like crumb rubber, which are used for a number of purposes.

Innovative Home Reuse Ideas for Used Tires

Think about whether you can repurpose your old tires around the house before searching for a professional tire disposal service. Upcycling tires yourself is a great way to keep them out of the trash and give your garden or yard a distinctive look.

• Planters and edging for gardens: To make sturdy, eye-catching raised beds or borders for your vegetable and flower gardens, clean and paint old tires.
• Outdoor Furnishings: A tire can be turned into a chic patio ottoman or side table with a little rope, paint, and a sturdy top.
• Playground Fun: The traditional tire swing is still a favorite, or you can use tires to make a sturdy, reasonably priced sandbox for kids.

Commonly Asked Questions

Is it safe to plant edible vegetables and do gardening with old tires? 

Although it’s common practice to recycle old tires into garden planters, some research has expressed concerns regarding the possibility of chemicals and heavy metals seeping into the soil. Because of this, it’s usually advised to use tire planters only for inedible plants, such as flowers, or to use the tires as a raised bed’s outer border, making sure the soil is kept inside non-tire materials.

What are the primary goods manufactured from tires that have been recycled? 

A variety of materials are created by shredding and processing recycled tire rubber. The most widely used products include tire-derived fuel (TDF), rubberized asphalt for road construction, rubber mulch for playgrounds and landscaping, and molded items like tiles, mats, and sound-absorbing materials. Professional tire recycling is crucial because of this high rate of material recovery.
