Ontario Tire Take Back Days 2012

Date & Time: Monday, May 28, 2012 - 08:00 - Saturday, June 2, 2012 - 18:00

Location: Across Ontario

Want to get rid of those unwanted tires cluttering up your garage or yard?

For one week only, Ontario Automotive Recyclers Association (OARA) members across Ontario will be collecting your used tires free of charge.

All tire fees associated with each tire dropped off will be donated by participating members to The Sunshine Foundation of Canada, and OARA will match the donation made from all tires collected.

The event’s goal is to not only recycle thousands of tires across the province, but through these efforts, raise funds for the Sunshine Foundation of Canada. Last year, Tire Take Back Days raised over $123,000 for Sunshine.

Visit greenmytires.ca to find a participating OARA Member in your area.
