RPHF Solid Waste District Sets Dates For Tire/Electronics Recycling Events

Presented By Atomic Speedway

Dates have been set in the annual effort to collect old tires and electronic equipment within the Ross/Pickaway/Highland & Fayette County Solid Waste Management District.

This will be for “residents only”, that live within the county as each has their separate event date.

Pickaway County will get things started for their residents on May 22nd at the Pickaway County Highway Department. This runs from 8am-noon.

Ross County has set a date of June 19th at the Ross County Fairgrounds between 8am-noon.

Highland County’s event is October 2nd at the Highland County Community Action Lot between 8am-noon.

Fayette County will be doing an “electronics only” event at 1580 Robinson Road SE in Washington Court House on November 12th from 8am-2pm.

For event rules, you can find the acceptable electronics list, by going to www.ait-recycle.com

Unacceptable electronics include but are not limited to ammunition, asbestos, explosives, medical supplies, freon and hazardous waste.

Miscellaneous tires and TV’s will be priced on site.

State law prohibits more than 10 tires being transported at a time unless you have registered with the EPA.

Due to high demand, they will stop accepting items when containers are full, as it will be a first come first serve basis.
