The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection’s REAP program is hosting a local tire collection in Wyoming County to rid the county of old tires.
The event is scheduled from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 16, at the old Division of Highways garage on Route 10 in Rock View.
Residents may dispose of up to 10 tires per person with a valid West Virginia ID for Wyoming County. Rims will be accepted. Only car and light truck tires 16 inches or less will be accepted. Haulers and businesses are not allowed to participate.
The event is made possible in part through REAP, within the DEP’s Division of Land Restoration. REAP (Rehabilitation Environmental Action Plan) brings together all of the state’s cleanup programs to maximize the state’s cleanup efforts.
