Help reduce mosquitoes by recycling tires at the free Tire Take Back Day on April 27th! Open to all residents of Austin and Travis County; Only passenger tires without rims will be accepted.
Mosquitoes are not just annoying; they can spread disease. And one of their favorite places to breed is in tires. Water in one discarded tire can produce more than 10,000 adult mosquitoes!
You can help reduce the mosquito population in your yard and neighborhood by recycling your old tires for free at the second annual Tire Take Back Day. Open to all residents of Austin and Travis County; Only passenger tires without rims will be accepted.
