Scrap tire collection

As part of the Cowtown Great American Cleanup, the City of Fort Worth is accepting scrap tires! From littered tires from the roadside or old tires from your home, you do not have to be a cleanup volunteer to dispose of old scrap tires. Stop litter in its tracks - bring us your scrap tires!

Scrap tire collection site: Fort Worth City Hall, 100 Fort Worth Trail. Back parking lot - use the Forest Park Boulevard entrance. 8 a.m.-noon Saturday, March 28

Responsibly dispose of unwanted tires while helping reduce illegal dumping, minimize landfill waste and prevent fire hazards. It's free with no limits on tires.

• Tires from passenger vehicles (cars, trucks, motorcycles and SUVs).
• Rubber tires from small vehicles/equipment (bicycles, scooters, dollies and lawnmowers).
• Rims, preferably separated from tires.
• For all tires/rims brought for disposal: Remove dirt, water, oils and paint.
• Not accepted: Tires from commercial vehicles or 18-wheelers.

Earth Party

After the morning cleanup, volunteers are invited to celebrate at Earth Party! As a thank-you for your efforts, participants will be treated to food, games, activities and the annual Trashion Fashion Show.

It's a day full of fun packed with opportunities to connect with thousands of others who share a loving commitment to Fort Worth.

Trashion Fashion Show

The Trashion Fashion Show contest is in full gear! Designers of all ages are invited to fashion creations made with at least 50% trash or recyclable materials. Submissions are due by Wednesday, March 25. View full contest details online.

Whether you are participating in the cleanup or dropping off old tires, the Cowtown Great American Cleanup is an easy way to be part of the litter solution. Don't miss out and register today.
