There is no cost to you, if you work with a tire retailer and you properly bundle the tires and tubes for processing. See the Bike Tire and Tube Recycling Information Sheet to learn how to bundle your tires and tubes.
Please read the Bike Tire and Tube Recycling Information sheet for program details.
