Proposed Tire Disposal Fee Structure
Effective December 3, 2001

Proposed Tire Disposal Fee Structure
The Town of Greenville collects used tires of all sizes at the Greenville Landfill for disposal. There is no market for these used tires: there is actually a charge for us to have a company dispose of these tires, and also a charge for the loading and the hauling of the tires from the landfill site. Therefore, every single tire which is disposed of at the landfill is an additional cost to us beyond the typical operation of the landfill itself. Therefore, the Town of Greenville proposes to implement the following fee structure and tire disposal system. It goes like this:

Tires physically smaller in size than a tractor trailer tire - $1.00 / tire
(this includes recreational vehicle tires, motorcycle tires, yard tractor tires, etc.)

Tires equal to or larger in size than a truck tire - $2.00 / tire
(this includes tractor-trailer tires)

Skidder tires - $12 / tire

To dump tires at the landfill, you must have a written permit from the Town of Greenville. To get such a permit, you must come to the Town Office during business hours and tell the clerk how many tires and which sizes you will be disposing. They will calculate the fee and give you a receipt. Present this receipt to the dump attendant and he will allow you to dump your tires. The following amounts may be paid for bulk dumping of tires of any variety:

Pickup (1/2 ton, ¾ ton, 1 ton, full-size, compact, 6' or 8' bed) any amount: $60/load
Dump truck (8-14 yard body) any amount: $120/load
Larger Dump Bodies: $300/load

ALL FEES MUST BE PAID IN FULL PRIOR TO DUMPING TIRES AT THE LANDFILL – NO MONEY WILL BE COLLECTED BY THE DUMP ATTENDANT. IF YOU DO NOT PAY FOR YOUR TIRES DURING TOWN OFFICE HOURS, YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE NEXT TIME THE TOWN OFFICE IS OPEN.

Respectfully submitted;

John Simko
Town Manager
