14 - The Oakville Beaver, Friday April 25, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com Drop off old tires for free Get rid of those old tires while helping out a good cause at the 11th annual Tire Amnesty Day tomorrow. Halton residents can drop off up to eight passenger tires for free between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the Halton Waste Management Site, located at 5400 Regional Road 25, Milton. Those who stop by are encouraged to bring a donation of food or cash for Halton-area food banks. "Tire Amnesty Day is a great chance for residents to reduce waste by dropping off their tires and having them recycled," said Regional Chair Gary Carr. "It is also an opportunity to help those less fortunate by donating non-perishable food items or money to our local food banks and we want to thank Halton residents for their generosity during previous events," said Carr. During the past 10 years, Halton residents have helped divert more than 22,600 tires from Halton's landfill through tire amnesty days. Also, more than 5,000 kilograms of food and $3,485 have been collected for local food banks. Tires that are brought to the Halton Waste Management Site on Saturday are taken away for recycling to be reused in automotive applications, running tracks and blasting mats for road construction activities. Commercial vehicle, truck and tractor tires won't be accepted on Tire Amnesty Day. During the rest of the year, Halton residents can drop off up to five passenger vehicle tires per year at the waste management site for $5. Another benefit of taking old tires to Tire Amnesty Day is to reduce mosquito breeding sites. Tires left around the yard can collect standing water, which can be an ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes. Mosquitoes can carry West Nile virus and the disease can be transmitted to humans. Residents are encouraged to ensure water isn't allowed to collect in tires, children's toys, wading pools, flower pots or any other places.
