Tire Shop Term

Scrap tire license

Definition

Ohio's license to hold over 100 scrap tires, which a retailer is spared until 1,000 sit outdoors uncovered.

Why It Matters

Ohio's line is one hundred: nobody may store, possess or process more than that many scrap tires without a permit or registration and a license to operate, and failing to get one is open dumping. A retailer gets a carve-out worth understanding, and it is written about the yard. Up to a thousand scrap tires may sit outdoors unsecured, and a shop that keeps every scrap tire inside a building or a covered enclosed container does not have to register at all. The license itself can transfer on sale with the board's consent. The pile is the part that cannot: cleanup costs become a lien on the land, and the exemption for tires that arrived before the owner did is available only to somebody who took the property by will.
