Have old tires taking up space around your home, garage, or property? Here’s your chance to get rid of them the right way for FREE!

📅 Saturday, October 17
⏰ 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Bring your unwanted tires and let us take care of the rest! Every tire properly recycled is one less tire that could end up littering our beautiful East Texas community. 🌲💚

Last year, our community showed up BIG, we collected over 1000 tires, and we can’t wait to see what we can accomplish together this year! Save the date, share this post, and tag someone who has a few old tires they need to get rid of! ♻
