been clearing my mothers house over the last week taking a lot of stuff to the dump, i have known for a while that they charge for certain items but noticed today they are charging £4.80 each for tyres ...the boxeye could do with a couple of new tyres but i am not paying £9.60 to get rid of the old ones. . could this be the beginning of the end for home fitting ?...
If you use any branch of Universal Tyres, in the south of the country, there's a set charge for disposing your old tyres. You could cut them up with an angle grinder, black bag the pieces and chuck it in the landfill skip.
...probably where my next tyre will end up if i dont recieve a letter from the council beforehand

,iam also one of those annoying neighbours that burns diy timber off cuts
Not suggesting I’d do such a thing but instead of cutting up, rope around the tyre to fold in half and it will fit in the black bin....
Quotetoday they are charging £4.80 each for tyresIf you are that tight or desperate,Yup you can bag em, but you might also find your local tyre fitting centre has a big pile of tyres sitting in their yard. I wouldn't imagine they would notice an addition or two. Bear in mind they will probably also have CCTV.Quote,iam also one of those annoying neighbours that burns diy timber off cutsEasy fixed with a call to the council.

i have also accumulated 20 litres of used engine oil which will be going to the dump on Saturday, no charge for that so must be sold on...but what for ?
Remember remember the 5th of November
So, fridge now sat in my front garden
Old tyres - surely you can never have too many kids garden swings?
