Help keep tires out of landfill by returning your old, used ones to Canadian Tire—we’ll arrange for them to be recycled.
Live in Ontario? Participate in this great program by dropping off used tires at Canadian Tire for recycling, at no charge to you. We’ll work with our partners to inspire new uses for those materials, from rubber surfaces for children’s playgrounds to new products—including house mats and garden edging—that we sell in our stores.
All Canadian Tire locations in Ontario, except the Toronto Eaton Centre and the Toronto Liberty Village locations will accept your used tires.*
The pliable and play-safe surfaces of the environmentally sustainable, accessible playgrounds built as part of our Play Finds A Way initiative include rubber sourced from more than 20,000 recycled tires.
Working together, we can ensure used tires are recycled responsibly. New products manufactured with recycled materials have a smaller carbon footprint, and are more sustainable.
As of January 1, 2019, in Ontario, the Tires Regulation under the Resource Recovery and Circular Economy Act, 2016 requires tire producers to be responsible for collecting and managing tires supplied to customers in Ontario by reusing, retreading and recycling them.
The regulation establishes mandatory and enforceable tire collection and management targets for producers.
The regulation gives producers flexibility to meet their targets by either making their own arrangements for collecting and managing tires, or by contracting a producer organization responsible to act on their behalf.
When you buy new tires at Canadian Tire, we charge a recycling fee that goes toward the cost of collecting, transporting and processing used tires.**
Please bring your used tires to participating Canadian Tire stores during regular store hours. Speak to store staff once you arrive for more information.
*This program is available to Ontario residents only. **An Eco Fee is applied to the sale of each new tire at time of purchase.
