Tire disposal prices in Altoona
First item / additional item
Car or pickup-truck tire$99 / $20
Commercial tire, up to 120 lb$125 / $55
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Tires are refused at the IRC recycling and compost facility and the City publishes no curbside tire collection, so a tire needs a confirmed destination before it leaves the property.
City cost & eligibility
No municipal tire fee is published and the facility refuses tires, so confirm the route and any charge with the City or a tire retailer.
When & how
Confirm the destination by phone before hauling tires.
Get it ready
Do not bring tires to the Buckhorn facility, which lists tires among the materials it does not accept. Ask the collection provider or a tire retailer about the current take-back arrangement.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
City of Altoona and the Intermunicipal Relations Committee
Collection provider route for large items
A residence that must have garbage collection and needs a large item that neither the city nor the IRC facility publishes as an accepted drop-off.
Cost & conditions
No municipal large item rate is published, so confirm the route and any charge with the collection provider on the account or with the Intermunicipal Relations Committee.
Arrange it
Call the provider or the Intermunicipal Relations Committee at 814-942-7472 before the item is set out.
Mattresses, tires and construction material are refused at the IRC facility, so those items need a confirmed destination instead of a trip to Buckhorn.
Altoona residents haul recyclable material to the IRC facility on Blacksnake Road in Dysart, where televisions, computers and metal appliances are free, Freon containing appliances carry a per item fee, and paint, lumber, mattresses and tires are refused. Yard material can also be dropped there, and the curbside recycling collection includes yard waste for the municipalities the IRC serves.

Do you take tires still mounted on rims?+
Text our team a photo before booking so we can confirm the scope and price for your setup.
Can my tire shop take the old tires?+
Ask the tire retailer or your local waste authority about their collection options and requirements. If the tires are already at home, Dropcurb offers a separately booked outdoor pickup for the listed tire types.
Can I arrange same-day pickup?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Checkout shows the available dates for your address. Your booking is for a pickup day, rather than an exact arrival window. We send updates and photos after collection.
Where should I put my items?+
