Car Tyre Amnesty – North West Tasmania

Got old car tyres taking up space in the shed? The Cradle Coast Waste Management Group is launching its first-ever Car Tyre Amnesty — and we’re inviting households across North West Tasmania to dispose of unwanted tyres safely and responsibly.

Run in partnership with Tyrecycle, this event helps remove a hazardous waste stream from the community and ensures tyres are processed in a safe and sustainable way.

A fully refundable $8.80 (inc. GST) holding fee applies at the time of booking to secure your place. If you attend and drop off your registered tyres on the day, the fee will be refunded in full within 7 days. (No-shows will not receive a refund.)

The event will be held at the Burnie Waste Management and Resource Recovery Centre, and pre-registration is essential. Places are limited.

For residents of all Cradle Coast Councils, including: Burnie, Devonport, Central Coast, Waratah-Wynyard, Circular Head, Kentish, and Latrobe.

Round ’em up, register ’em, and roll ’em in!
