Document Shredding

Montco does NOT hold countywide document shredding events, but encourages municipalities to sponsor events for your residents. These are popular, as almost everyone has files that need to be shredded, and the County cannot provide events to cover all municipalities. Community shred events that Montco Recycling becomes aware of are listed at this link: Document Shredding | Montgomery County, PA - Official Website (montcopa.org)

Tires

Montgomery County does not hold tire collection events. There are plenty of outlets for tire disposal as tire retailers usually accept used tires for a fee, see list at https://www.montcopa.org/2021/Tires.  

If a resident has a large number of tires or non-standard tires to dispose of, they should contact our local tire recycling company:

Emanuel Tire of PA,
