Old tires make excellent breeding grounds for mosquitoes, so proper disposal of tires is a must. Mosquitoes are not just annoying; they can carry germs that cause disease. The Saginaw County Mosquito Abatement Commission operates a variety of programs aimed at controlling the area’s mosquito population.
Lead acid batteries used in cars, boats, snowmobiles and ATV’s, are accepted for recycling at a number of retail stores and automotive service facilities selling new lead-acid batteries. A core charge of $10 – $15 is usually assessed by the retailer. Also check the Yellow Pages under Auto Parts, Scrap Yards, Recycling Drop-Off Centers or Car Batteries.
Large auto parts, such as seats, transmissions, engines, bumpers and doors are not taken at curbside.
