Tyre disposal
My local dump has stopped taking tyres ... ok, so where the feck am I supposed to get rid of them now?!!?
 Can you take a tyre to say quickfit and dump it there? I assume they will charge, how much? Bearing in mind people dumping tyres is a real problem, WTF are the council thinking abolishing tyre disposal at household recycling centres (dumps to you and me  )?!!?? Also I am trying to get rid of wheels ... they have tyres on them ... will the dump take wheels+tyres, or even wheels-tyres now?!!? I am thinking of leaving them all in a pile outside of my local councillors house ... with a note saying, WTF am I paying you my council tax for ... take these tyres or reduce my council tax!!

Re: Tyre disposal
Tyre places will charge you probs ?1 or something like that, my local council dump doesnt mind tyres why dont you just put them in a bin bag? is a stupid idea stopping people tipping tyres as it will just encourage fly tippin like the pikeys do.

Re: Tyre disposal
If I was in this position, I'd take them to the dealership I hate and throw them over the fence, let them deal with it.
