Tire Tamer retrieves illegally dumped and abandoned tires across Jackson, MS and routes them to authorized processing facilities. Cleaner land, fewer mosquitoes, zero landfill.
Mississippi has a landfill tire ban. Every waste tire must go through an authorized processor. But between the dump site and the processing facility, there's a gap. Big national recyclers collect from retailers and dealers. They don't show up to vacant lots, creek beds, and roadsides. Tire Tamer fills that gap.
Tire fires are nearly impossible to extinguish and release toxic black smoke, heavy metals, and oil runoff into soil and waterways.
Stagnant water in tire casings creates breeding habitat for mosquitoes carrying Zika, West Nile, and Eastern Equine Encephalitis.
Illegal tire dumps depress surrounding property values and deter economic development in already underserved neighborhoods.
We locate abandoned tire sites through municipal partnerships, resident reports, and MDEQ enforcement referrals. Our crews retrieve tires from dump sites, vacant lots, and roadsides.
Every load is manifested and tracked per MDEQ requirements. Full chain of custody from pickup to processing facility. No tire falls through the cracks.
Tires are delivered to authorized processors like MS Tire Recycling. They become tire-derived fuel, crumb rubber, playground mulch, and rubberized asphalt. 100% repurposed.
Tire Tamer isn't just a hauling company. It's a hub connecting municipalities, processors, and property owners.
City of Jackson and Hinds County pay for authorized tire cleanup through their SWEEP program and solid waste division.
Mississippi offers Waste Tire Collection Grants, Cleanup Grants, and Recycling Incentive Grants specifically for this work.
Auto shops, tire retailers, and salvage yards pay per-tire or subscription fees for regular waste tire removal.
Private landowners and property managers pay to clear illegally dumped tires before development or sale.
Every tire we pull off a vacant lot becomes fuel, rubber mulch, or road material. That's not waste management. That's building a circular economy for Mississippi.
Tire Tamer was founded by a U.S. military veteran who traded one form of service for another. The same discipline, mission focus, and accountability that military service demands now drives our work in Jackson's neighborhoods. We answer to our community the same way we answered to our unit — completely.
Veteran ownership gives Tire Tamer an edge on municipal contracts, MDEQ grant eligibility, and community trust. But more than the business advantage — it's why we show up, every time, no excuses.
Eligible for veteran-owned set-asides on municipal contracts and state procurement with the City of Jackson and Hinds County.
Military-grade accountability on every pickup — documented, manifested, and verified from site to processing facility. No shortcuts.
We built Tire Tamer because Jackson's neighborhoods deserve better. Same reason veterans serve — because somebody has to step up.
