BERNALILLO COUNTY, N.M. — If you have an old, unused scrap tire, or tires, Bernalillo County is partnering with the City of Albuquerque for Tire Amnesty Days.

Officials say the amnesty events offer a free and effective way to remove and recycle scrap tires. Otherwise, they say those tires litter the community and pose a health hazard for residents.

If you go, they’ll accept a maximum of nine passenger car/truck tires per vehicle. They won’t accept tires from businesses.

They’ve done two amnesty events already. The next ones are as follows:

• January 27 – BernCo Isleta Skate Park
• February 10 – Pajarito Mesa Community Center
• February 24 – Tom Tenorio Park
• March 9 – Holly and Eubank, North Albuquerque Acres
• April 13 – Pajarito Mesa Community Center
• May 4 – Los Vecinos Community Center

In the video above, city and county officials talked more about this.
