BREVARD COUNTY, FL. – Brevard County residents have the opportunity to dispose of old tires in an environmentally friendly way and help reduce mosquito breeding grounds and the spread of mosquito-borne diseases. Brevard County Mosquito Control, in partnership with Brevard County Solid Waste Management and the Florida Department of Health in Brevard, is hosting Tire Amnesty Week from May 19 through May 23. Tires can be dropped off between 7 a.m. and 2 p.m. at either of the following locations:
This free opportunity is only for Brevard County residents and a valid driver’s license is required as proof of residency. Participants may drop off up to 20 tires per household, without rims. Please note that commercial businesses are not eligible to participate.
Proper disposal of old tires is a crucial step in preventing mosquito breeding, as stagnant water in discarded tires creates an ideal environment for mosquito larvae. By participating in this event, residents can help protect their community from mosquito-borne diseases and contribute to a healthier environment.
