In Gostomel, Kyiv region, local authorities have created a specialized location where residents can take used car tires for recycling for free.

This was reported by the Gostomel settlement military administration on Telegram.

"If you have unwanted tires, you can leave them in a specially designated place from April 10 to April 30 inclusive. After that, the waste will be disposed of in accordance with the necessary requirements," the message says.

The Gostomel SWA emphasizes that only used car tires can be brought to the location. It is forbidden to throw away any other waste. Violators will be punished with fines.

The address of the collection point for used tires for recycling: 73-D, Svyato-Pokrovska Street, Gostomel.
