The Holcim Cement Plant at Portland, Fremont County, and Geocycle are sponsoring another tire collection day as part of the annual spring cleanup campaign. The Holcim Plant along Highway 120 east of Florence will accept tires from Fremont County residents at no charge from 8:00 a.m. until 12 noon this Saturday, April 16th. Holcim will accept only clean passenger vehicle tires that are off the rim. No tractor tires, monster or semi-truck tires will be accepted. There will be a limit of 20 tires accepted per household and you must show photo identification for proof of residency in Fremont County.
When taking tires to the cement plant you should follow the signs to the west entrance of the plant. Tires will be accepted only on the special tire recycling day Saturday and only during the specified hours.
The Holcim Cement Plant provides the free tire recycling day to Fremont County residents as a community service. Since 2004 Holcim has used over 11 million recycled tires to fuel its kiln at the cement plant.
