Events Held in Conjunction With St. Lawrence County Highway Department
State Senator Patty Ritchie has announced she will host two free waste tire disposal events in St. Lawrence County on Saturday, September 27th.
The events—which are being held in conjunction with the St. Lawrence County Highway Department—are aimed at cleaning up St. Lawrence County, preventing the spread of illnesses by eliminating tires that breed disease carrying insects and protecting the environment.
“My free waste tire disposal events provide a great opportunity to help clean up our community, prevent the spread of disease and keep St. Lawrence County beautiful,” said Senator Ritchie.
“I’d like to thank the St. Lawrence County Highway Department, especially it’s Superintendent, Donald Chambers for their help in hosting these very important events which will give residents the opportunity to get rid of waste tires without the typical $15 fee.”
Waste tires may be dropped off from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on September 27th at the following locations:
· Ogdensburg Transfer Station, located at 522 County Route 28A (Arnold-Wagner Road)
· Gouverneur Solid Waste Transfer Station, located at 1831 US Highway 11
Each household will be permitted to dispose of up to eight tires, with the usual $15 fee being waived. Tractor tires will be accepted, but must be cut in quarters.
