Four weekend tire collection events are being held around West Virginia in June.

The Department of Environmental Protection said two events will be held June 4 at Lincoln County High School in Hamlin and at Leslie Equipment in the Webster County community of Cowen. There are other collections June 11 at the Kenton Meadows Warehouse in the Braxton County community of Gassaway and on June 18 at Erickson Field in Parkersburg.

Individuals can dispose of up to 10 tires per person. The tires must be off the rims and only car and light truck tires will be accepted, the DEP said in a news release.
