There will be a Tire Amnesty Day on Jan. 23.
The program is set from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Environmental Services Bureau, 2929 E. Willow St., just east of Temple Avenue.
The collection gives all Long Beach residents the chance to dispose of tires in an environmentally manner at no cost, according to city spokesman Ed Kamlan.
Hazardous waste materials will not be handled, Kamlan said, adding that no rims will be taken. Only five tires or less per car will be accepted, he said.
