Since 2004, Independence Conservancy has properly disposed of over 66,000 tires through this program, reinvesting all proceeds into clean water and open green space.

The Independence Conservancy is a nonprofit 501c3 land conservation and environmental stewardship organization active in Beaver, Washington and Allegheny Counties.
