What's the actual cost of tyre disposal?

Go to a tip that doesn’t charge.
I'm not prepared to travel that far!Likewise to all the chopping suggestions (and the comedy burning one...) I CBA with the hassle. I'll just take them back to the local tyre place where they came from when they do my new tyres.
I was just curious to see if anyone knew the actual cost.
I just use a knife to cut the tyre where the tread meets the sidewall so you end up with 2 doughnuts and a floppy tread. The bin men do the rest.
If the tyre can go in whole without getting stuck to th sides then it'll leave that way
EDIT: I remember in a documentary they mentioned 80p cost that I saw a while back. The documentary was about criminal folk renting big units, filling them with used tyres then leaving the landlord with the mess
I agree with you that its probably not worth the savings if you're willing to pay for fitting the tyres.

I don't know about the cost, but I am at the Cemex plant in Rugby, the tyres are chipped and burned in the furnace here, along with a great deal of plastic waste.
From a Tilbury tanker driver.It can't be that cheap because people dump scrap 40ft trailers around here filled with tyres on a regular basis.
