On March 01, 2026, the State of Connecticut launched the first ever Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for tires.
The Town of Canaan has contracted with the Connecticut Tire Stewardship to collect tires at the Falls Village Transfer Station at 100 Rt. 63, Falls Village.
Falls Village residents can bring their car and truck tires to the Transfer Station and place them in the green CWPM container marked TIRES.
PLEASE no oversized tires. PLEASE be respectful and stack the tires neatly.
As of Tuesday, October 06, 2026, we will no longer accept tires as bulk waste; tires brought to the Transfer Station will be placed in the special container for TIRES as earlier mentioned.
Also, as in the past, NO RIMS. There is NO FEE connected with disposing of the tires.
The Transfer Station is open Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 8:00AM to 3:00PM.
We are very excited to join this program and remove tires from the waste stream and landfills.
We are committed to working with other communities in Connecticut to reduce waste, reuse and recycle..
For questions, please contact: Falls Village Transfer Station at (860) 824-5819.
