Tractor Tire Drive scheduled at Freedom Township Hall

submitted by Washtenaw County Conservation District

The Washtenaw County Conservation District and Washtenaw County Materials Management Division are happy to announce they are holding their third annual Tractor Tire Drive on December 9 from 9am to 1pm at Freedom Township Hall, located at 11508 E Pleasant Lake Rd. Since its inception, the drive has collected 314 tractor tires from the agricultural community, preventing them from leaching chemicals into groundwater and reducing the breeding grounds for mosquitoes.  

Registration for the event is required as space is limited and there is a limit of four tires per address or operation. Tires left outside of drop-off hours may result in the cancellation of future tire drive events.  

If you are interested in dropping off your tractor tires, you can register online at  washtenawcd.org/tractortiredrive or by calling (734) 302-8715 to register by phone. 

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
