Short version: no. Florida pulled whole tires out of its landfills years ago, so they can’t go in the household trash, and a hauler can’t drop them at a regular landfill unless they’ve already been cut down to size. The rule lives in Florida Statute 403.717: waste tires have to go to a permitted facility, and whoever hauls them has to be a registered collector with the state’s Department of Environmental Protection.
One number trips up a lot of shops: 25. The moment someone moves more than 25 tires a month for you, you’re on the hook to keep records — date, count, the hauler’s registration number, the driver’s name. Miss that, and the fine follows you, not the truck.
That’s why we keep our WACS registration (#108814) current and hand you clean paperwork on every pickup. You stay on the right side of the law, the tires actually get recycled into tire-derived fuel and crumb rubber instead of sitting in a pile breeding mosquitoes, and nobody loses a Saturday to a code violation. Want to read it yourself? The Florida DEP waste-tire page spells out the whole thing.

Whole waste tires can’t go in a Florida landfill.
Haul more than 25 tires a month and record-keeping kicks in.
Our active WACS registration — bonded & insured.
A tire doesn’t just vanish into a landfill — in Florida it legally can’t. Here’s the real path once it leaves your hands.
We sort the load first and pull anything that’s still got life in it. The rest gets shredded. Most of it becomes tire-derived fuel (TDF) — a cleaner-burning fuel that cement kilns and paper mills run in place of coal. A good chunk gets ground into crumb rubber: the springy stuff under playgrounds, in running tracks and athletic turf, even blended into road asphalt. Bigger casings sometimes get a second life in civil-engineering jobs like erosion control.
The point is simple — a used tire is a raw material, not garbage. Nationally, about three-quarters of scrap tires get turned into something useful instead of dumped (U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association). Everything we collect goes that way. Never a landfill, never an illegal pile.
Run a tire shop, a dealership, or a fleet and you already know the back lot fills up fast — and Florida pays attention to how those tires leave. Move more than 25 a month and the state wants records: who hauled them, when, how many, and a registration number. Hire the wrong guy and that paperwork headache is yours, not his.
We run scheduled pickups across Orange & Seminole County, weigh and log every load, and hand you the transporter records that keep an inspector satisfied. Bonded, insured, WACS #108814. One less thing on your plate.
