At Liberty Tire Recycling, safety is our top priority. We are incredibly proud to report an 11% reduction in lost time injury rate (LTIR), year-over-year in 2025.

This reduction is the result of numerous safety program enhancements implemented in 2025, including:

♻️ Workplace Health & Safety Assessment Expansion

♻️ Safety Work Order System Development

♻️ Task Variation & Ergonomic Support Enhancements

♻️ Side-By-Side Safety Walks

♻️ CPR, AED, & First Aid Training Participation

♻️ Cross-Functional Safety Collaboration

We believe safety is everyone's responsibility. Every Liberty employee is empowered with stop-work authority, and encouraged to identify hazards and suggest improvements through anonymous reporting or direct communication with the Safety Director.

Liberty Tire Recycling applauds recent progress made in DeKalb County, GA, to craft legislation curbing improper tire disposal.

Illegally dumped tires are "plaguing residential neighborhoods and business districts across the county, causing environmental, public health and public safety challenges," according to DeKalb Policy Analyst Marcus Allen. "These proposed amendments strengthen regulations for scrap tire enforcement and establish updated penalties for unlawful dumping in unincorporated DeKalb County."

Liberty is proud to serve as a statewide tire recycling partner. We look forward to working with the DeKalb County community to tackle this growing problem.

DeKalb County is considering ways to curb tire dumping and the improper disposal of other bulky items. An ordinance under consideration includes a fine of up to $1,000 and imprisonment for individuals.

🏆♻️ Recycled Rubber Recognized with County Excellence Award:

Floyd County, GA, has received a 2026 Georgia County Excellence Award for its Rubber-Modified Asphalt Initiative, an innovative roadway program that transforms recycled tires into durable paving material.

Liberty Tire Recycling provided the project with SmartMIX rubber modified asphalt, a cost-effective technology that improves pavement performance and increases longevity while diverting tires from the waste stream.

“The neatest thing about this entire project, is there is a good possibility that tires in this roadway came from Floyd County,” a project leader shared. “Knowing that we took tires out of the waste stream through our grant-funded amnesty efforts and helped recycle them into our roadways is a great outcome.”

Thank you to the Association County Commissioners of Georgia and Georgia Trend magazine for celebrating sustainable innovation in Floyd County!
