Floyd County Solid Waste Sets Date for Scrap Tire Amnesty Day
Floyd County residents will have the opportunity to drop-off scrap tires for free at the Scrap Tire Amnesty Day event on Saturday, April 23, 2022 at the GE Plant at 1935 Redmond Circle, Rome from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. No appointment is necessary. Guidelines for the event are listed below.

- Must have Floyd county tag
- No commercial tires (tractor trailer, skid steer, fork lift)
- No tires on rim

The Tire Amnesty Day is made possible thanks to a $6,880 grant from the Environmental Protection Division’s (EPD) Local Government Scrap Tire Abatement Reimbursement (STAR) Program. This grant will reimburse Floyd County for the cost of transporting and processing scrap tires. It is funded from Georgia’s Solid Waste Trust Fund.
