[SDCBC] Bike Tire/Tube Recycling

[Kevin Reindl]

I thought I would pass this along as well...

Looks like Bicycle Warhouse is starting to recycle tubes, and is willing to
do more...please keep them in mind if you come across ideas for them to
expand their recycling efforts.

Hi Kevin,



Thanks for your email. We are just starting a recycle program for innertubes
with a company that makes messenger bags out of them. Here are the details:



·         Tubes only (no tires)

·         No limit

·         Mountain tubes – wider than 35c or 1.25”

·         Un-cut (blowouts and patches are okay)

·         No goo or slime inside of tube.



Hope this helps a bit. We have not found a tire recycler yet. If you run
into one let us know we’d like to do the same for tires and road tubes.



Thanks



Mike Simmons

Hi, I was wondering if the Bicycle Warehouse accepts used tires and tubes

for recycling? If so, is there a limit on the number someone can bring in?

Where do you recycle them?



Thanks in advance for your response,

Kevin Reindl
