Get rid of scrap tires in Marquette Wednesday

MARQUETTE, MI--   The City of Marquette is accepting scrap tires Wednesday.

Officials with the city and the Marquette County Solid Waste Management Authority will be at the Compost/Rubbish site from 3 to 7 p.m. Tires that are 22.5 inches in diameter or less will be accepted. They’ll be collected and hauled to the landfill for processing.

Larger tires, tractor tires, and tires on split rims will not be accepted.

A 2018 Scrap Tire Cleanup Program Grant from the Department of Environmental Quality facilitated the collection.
