What it takes
It’s the only place in Tipton County that takes tires, brush, and construction debris. The Tipton County Convenience Center takes appliances, mattresses, and some paint. The Tipton County Recycling Center takes electronics, used motor oil, and batteries.
Each item has its own rules. Check before you go.
