  3. Nevada tire retailer take-back (NRS 444A.060)State program · NevadaOpen to everyoneConditions applyCost not listed
    How it works

    Nevada stores that sell vehicle tires must accept your used or waste tires when you buy new tires from them, and must post a notice saying so. You do not have to trade in a tire to buy one. A $1 state fee is charged on each new tire. The law does not say how many old tires a store must take or whether it may charge a disposal fee.

    Cost & rules
    • When you buy new vehicle tires, the store may not refuse your used or waste tires in exchange. The law does not say how many it must take or whether it may charge a disposal fee.
    • Where a permitted waste tire facility serves the county or health district, waste tires may not go in a municipal landfill, and dumping tires at an unpermitted site is illegal.

Before you go
