Same-Day Tire Removal in Boise
Professional tire removal services serving Boise and surrounding areas.
Delivering fresh starts since 2022
If you've got a pile of tires sitting against the garage, stacked behind a shop, or left over from a property cleanout, same-day tire removal in Boise means someone shows up, loads them, and gets them off your property the same day you call — not scheduled out for later in the week.
Tires are one of the trickier things to get rid of around here. They're heavy, they're awkward to stack in a truck bed, and Ada County treats them differently than regular household trash. That's the part most people don't realize until they're already stuck with a load nobody wants to take.
Mistakes people make getting rid of tires
The biggest one is assuming tires can go out with regular curbside trash or get picked up through the city's bulky-item program. They can't. Curbside and bulky pickup are built for furniture, appliances, and mattresses — not tires, and not construction debris either.
Another common mistake is leaving rims on when it isn't necessary, which adds weight and makes loading harder than it needs to be. And people often underestimate how a load of tires needs to be secured. Ada County requires every load headed to the landfill to be tarped or strapped down, and loose tires blowing out of a truck bed on the way there is exactly the kind of thing that gets noticed.
Where tires actually go in Ada County
Tires from a Boise job end up at the Ada County Landfill, also known as Hidden Hollow, up in the North Boise foothills off Seamans Gulch Road near Hill Road and Highway 55. The landfill takes tires, but not for free — there's a per-tire disposal fee, separate from general household waste.
The landfill is also strict about where the waste comes from. It only accepts loads generated inside Ada County, so a job has to be sorted and documented with that in mind. Tires get handled separately from scrap metal, yard waste, and construction debris once they're at the gate, which is part of why a load needs to be organized before it ever leaves your property.
- Tires are accepted, but charged a disposal fee — not treated as free household waste
- Waste has to have originated in Ada County
- Loads must be tarped or secured the whole way there, by county ordinance
- Rims count as scrap metal and can sometimes be separated out
- The landfill is closed Sundays, so same-day drop-off depends on the day of the week
- Payment at the gate can be cash, check, or card, though card carries a small processing fee
What changes the price and the timing
Volume is the biggest factor. Four tires in a driveway is a different job than forty tires stacked in a backyard or left behind after a commercial cleanout.
Whether the tires still have rims matters too — rims add weight, which affects both how many fit in a load and what gets separated out for scrap. Access plays a role as well: tires piled behind a fence, down a flight of stairs, or in a tight side yard take longer to load than tires sitting out front.
Season matters more than people expect. Tire shops and property managers tend to clear out old tires around seasonal swap times, which can mean more competition for same-day slots. And if a load is mixed with other debris instead of being just tires, sorting it for the landfill takes extra time on the front end.
The jobs that go fastest are the ones where the tires are gathered in one spot, counted ahead of time, and easy to reach — the rest comes down to how Ada County sorts and charges for them once they arrive at the landfill.
