🛑🛞 Tire Collection Update 🛞🛑

The Meigs County Health Department is no longer accepting tires at this time. We will update our social media when the tire collection program is able to resume in 2027 pending funding.

We want to thank everyone in our community who participated and helped make this program such a success! Through this effort, we have been able to remove more than 1,000 tires from Meigs County. 👏🛞

Removing old tires helps eliminate places where mosquitoes can breed, which can help reduce mosquito populations and lower the risk of mosquito-borne diseases in our community. 🦟💙

A special thank you to the Ohio EPA and the Gallia-Jackson-Meigs-Vinton Solid Waste District for their financial support and partnership in making this program possible. Your support has made a real difference in keeping Meigs County cleaner, healthier, and safer!

We appreciate everyone's participation and understanding. Please watch our page for updates when tire collection becomes available again.
