City cost & eligibility
From $4.5 per small passenger-car or light-truck tire at the Riley County Transfer Station, with higher published rates for medium, large and extra-large tires and an added charge for a tire that arrives on a rim. Riley County Transfer Station, 1881 Henton Road, Manhattan. The published schedule is dated October 1, 2023, so confirm the current rate before hauling.
When & how
Self-haul to the Transfer Station between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, closed Sundays and the listed county holidays.
Get it ready
Sort tires by size before the trip because the county prices them separately, expect an extra charge when a tire is still on its rim, and keep tires out of the city cleanup pile and out of any trash container.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Use a drop-off outlet from the city recycling directory
A household with electronics, scrap metal or tires that a local business on the city's published directory will take.
Cost & conditions
The directory is dated 2015-2016 and its printed prices no longer match the county schedule, so confirm each outlet's current acceptance and charge directly.
Arrange it
Open the directory, pick the outlet that handles your material, then call that business to confirm its current hours, limits and price before loading.
These are private businesses, not city or county facilities, and the directory itself says the information is subject to change. Treat every listing as a starting point that has to be confirmed.
