Tire recycling is good for the environment, but it also directly benefits Albertans.
Alberta Recycling's Municipal Grant Program provides funding to communities to help them purchase and install recycled tire products for community enhancement projects or to upgrade scrap tire collection areas at landfills and transfer stations.
The 2019 Municipal Grant Program is now closed. We will update this page with information regarding the next round of the Program in the fall of 2019.
Following is general information about the two types of grants that are available.
Municipal Demonstration Grant (MDG)
Municipalities, Indigenous communities, schools, and registered non-profit organizations can apply for the grant to purchase recycled tire products for community projects such as playgrounds, arenas, and walking trails.
Privately owned, for-profit companies are not eligible to apply.

Tire Marshalling Area Grant (TMA)
Municipalities, waste authorities/commissions and Indigenous communities can apply for the grant to upgrade tire collection areas at landfills and transfer stations.
Privately owned landfills are not eligible to apply.
