Tyre Disposal
Tyre disposal in the UK is regulated by the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and the Waste Framework Directive. It is illegal to dispose of whole tyres in landfill. End-of-life tyres must be processed through approved routes including retreading, recycling (into rubber crumb, playground surfacing, or fuel), or energy recovery. Tyre businesses must maintain records of tyre disposal and work with licensed waste carriers. TyreOps includes disposal tracking and compliance documentation.
