Tires are now classified as special waste in the State of California, and require special handling. Extra fees are charged for dropping tires at the landfill. The Town of Apple Valley sponsors at least one tire amnesty day each year during which residents may drop off passenger vehicle tires and small truck tires, free of charge.These tires are taken to a cement manufacturer and used as alternative fuel in the kiln.
