I'll bet that you or someone you know have a tire or two in the yard or garage that you've wanted to get rid of for years. You'll have the chance on Saturday June 21st, from 9am to 1pm at the Pescadero Transfer Station on Bean Hollow Rd.

In an effort to get green, and because grants have been made available, San Mateo County has hired a permitted hauler to pick up our unwanted tires of any size - with or without rims. Best part, the hauler plans on reusing and recycling as much as possible.

The last event in HMB actually rescued over 800 tires!! If you can't make it to Pescadero on the 21st, there will be similar events in the near future. I'll keep you posted.
