♻ Best Tyre Recyclers Turns Waste Tyres into Sustainable Resources

At Best Tyre Recyclers, we believe that recycling tyres is more than just waste management — it’s about protecting the environment, creating valuable resources, and complying with strict Australian environmental laws.

Our process is designed to be safe, efficient, and eco-friendly, following every step of Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Victoria guidelines. This ensures that end-of-life tyres are handled responsibly from collection to their final transformation into reusable materials.

📌 Key Benefits of Our Process:

✅ Zero landfill waste – 100% of tyres are recycled or repurposed
✅ Cold shredding technology – No toxic burning or harmful emissions
✅ Full traceability – Digital documentation for compliance audits
✅ Scalable solutions – From small workshops to industrial volumes

Step 1 – Scheduled Tyre Collection 🚛

We start by collecting waste tyres directly from your location — whether it’s a tyre shop, fleet depot, council facility, or industrial site.

  • Flexible schedules (weekly, fortnightly, or monthly pickups)

  • Specialised collection vehicles for safety

  • Fully licensed and insured operators

📌 Did You Know?
Over 50 million tyres reach end-of-life in Australia annually. Proper collection prevents illegal dumping and fire hazards.

Step 2 – Secure Transportation 🚚

Once collected, tyres are securely transported to our Benalla recycling facility using custom-designed transport trucks.

  • EPA-approved transport procedures

  • Secure loading to prevent environmental hazards

  • GPS-tracked vehicles for safety and accountability

📌 Safety First:
Our drivers are trained in Dangerous Goods (DG) compliance for hazardous tyre loads (e.g., mining OTRs).

Step 3 – EPA-Approved Storage 🏢

Before processing, tyres are stored in EPA-compliant facilities with:

  • Weather-resistant enclosures

  • Fire-prevention systems

  • Monitored and secure premises

📌 Storage Stats:
Our Benalla facility can safely store 5,000+ tonnes of shredded tyres before export.

Step 4 – Cold Tyre Shredding ♻

Our cold tyre shredding process is designed to:

  • Produce 50mm tyre chips ready for export or further processing

  • Reduce environmental impact

  • Meet all regulatory requirements

📌 Why Cold Shredding?
Unlike burning, our method:
✔ Reduces CO₂ emissions by 80%
✔ Preserves rubber quality for reuse
✔ Complies with National Environment Protection (Waste Tyres) Measure

Step 5 – Disposal or Export 🌍

Shredded tyres are exported to international markets where they’re used for:

  • Rubberised asphalt in road construction

  • Fuel in industrial kilns

  • Moulded rubber products

Phase 2: Launching local granule production for Australian markets.

📌 Circular Economy Impact:

1 recycled tyre = 4.5kg of CO₂ saved vs. landfill.

Our Commitment to the Environment ♻

We don’t just recycle tyres; we recycle with purpose. Every stage of our process is designed to minimise environmental harm and maximise resource recovery, ensuring our clients meet their own corporate social responsibility and compliance obligations.

Did You Know? 📊 (Tyre Recycling Facts in Australia)
  • Australia discards over 50 million tyres every year

  • Less than 10% are recycled locally — most are exported

  • Recycling just one tyre saves up to 75% of the energy needed to make new rubber

  • Shredded tyres are used in over 100 types of products worldwide

  • A tyre stockpile fire can burn for months and cause severe air pollution
