Find the closest tire shop in that area and you will find your tire dumpers
i dont know, there was a tire shop that was 25 miles away that was dumping tires close to me
@@EP1CNELSON because someone probably lived nearby. So he/she dumped the tires on the way home
I’m sure you can check their bookkeeping to see how many they replace and how many they pay to dispose of
@@nixel5695 those types of places don’t have book keeping or records, most operate on a cash basis and it goes straight into their pocket and there is no paper trail of any kind.
They do not operate like your chain store tire centers do that would have records of how many tires came thru the store and then your idea would have merit but the corner tire shop run by uncle Eddie and the gang, well, they can’t hardly count to 4 let alone keep records of how many tires they’ve sold this month. It was a valid, good thought tho
@@nixel5695, somebody of authority has to check the books periodically for the receipts on disposals of tires to the numbers of tires changed. There you will have the culprits!!!!
The dumpster wasn't missing... the city forgot to pick it up and the company was charging them the monthly rental fee that was hiding with all the other charges the city probably pays.
proof???
Exactly!
Tires should have a redemption fee like plastic bottles and aluminum cans rather than the current disposal fee paid when you buy new ones. If people dig through trash cans for bottles and cans to turn in at recycling centers for extra cash, you would get the same enthusiasm by people going picking up discarded tires as well. Tire shops would also be motivated to properly dispose them .
When you buy tires, you pay a disposal fee
Exactly. It's a waste of good rubber
@@billiamc1969 Did you read the comment? Read it again and ask an adult to tell you what they meant.
Is she the only person who cares about Detroit?
She actually no longer works for Channel 7. She left in Oct 2016 to take a job as spokesperson for the Detroit office of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
@@josephgregor2455 ha . good one. Not
Detroit is a dump anyway who cares
@@jg8049 hey Dick son get off ur fat ass
@@freinkbah3830 u mad bro🤣🤣
Love this lady she’s fearsome shame on the council
"En-TIRE neighborhood"
😂😂
They need a recycling plant/place where ppl can take their unwanted tires to, to be recycled....
They have dumps in Detroit?
You can take tires to the dump. You have to pay tho
My county here in NJ has an annual tire amnesty program. Residents can dispose of a certain number and type for free, while commercial entities can pay a fee (less than regular commercial disposal, which if you've seen any news about the many, MANY Philadelphia area tire and junkyard tire fires especially this year, commercial disposal doesn't actually seem to dispose of anything) for disposal of large quantities or other types of tires. The tires are ground down and the materials sifted. The belting gets recycled as scrap metal while the remainder is used as roadbed material.
People also build houses out of them.
Back in 1994 I was in a car accident. My parents driveway was pee stone. I couldn't get in or out of it. So I hired a friend to hot top the driveway. After he dug out the roots from a tree and dug out the rest of the dirt . He brought in ground up tires and used asphalt for the base. I asked him about that? He told me he started using that material cause it fluctuates with the temperature and prevents cracks. 20 something years later driveway looks great!!!
7/25/18.....So 1 yr later the original dumped tires were hauled away---5 homes were torn down---
But MORE dumped tires + dumped
trash filled dumpstet on the side of the street.
Now another "call out" for volunteers to come clear out this area again!
HOW did these people let this happen again?
Thanks for going back .
I don't live in Your State but I am happy to see that someone cares
What happened to the guy on the first episode that was working for double j,and what happened to that bosd
If I was on the board I would request all tire disposal receipts from all tire companies in the local area.
Ronnie I don’t live in Detroit but thanks for you trying to clean up the mess, they should have a State run recycle place to dispose of tires and chemicals etc...you have all those closed car factories wasting away Use them as huge recycling businesses .Car batteries are another problem,I’m sure hybrid car batteries will be like a tire problem in the future😎. Car companies spend billions to produce one car model but nothing to getting rid of it at the end of its life cycle ...10/13/2017
Channel 7 always doing good work.
How about arrest people for dumping tires
You a one good reporter love it 👍🏾😉
This is the states fault....they should not charge you money to recycle old tires!...they already charge you a recycling fee when you buy new tire then they want you pay a fee to recycle old tires! Change the damn law to free recycling like like it is with old batteries/used motor oil/cans and plastics and bottles.
the things you said companies make money off of but tires no.in ny theres a longisland company that you have to pay for each tire they take but they make dolly wheels play ground mates and other stuff
how do you know those tires werent brought in from another state, where a tire fee wasnt collected? you dont know - thats why you have to charge, genius
hclvchef you offer no solution , just problems. At least OP is trying to think of solutions. Make it like can recycling, charge the fee when new and offer a redemption on used tires no matter where they came from... trust those tires will be cleaned up
Exactly . Us that pay for new tires pay the fee. All they have to do is use the money properly to have them disposed of right. Not with some damn CRACKHEAD
so what they charge you money. they charge you money for the tires and to put them on your car. we all gotta eat. so that's somebody pay
Check the local companys records. For every tire sold they need a receipt to show that the old one was disposed if correctky. Make them accountable. Job done
If we didn't have investigative reporters like Ms. Dahl and all the others around the country nothing would ever get done in situations like this.
LMAO, NO ONE could call on their own and report a dumpster that was still there?? How is NO ONE noticing who is dumping hundreds/thousands of tires??
Way to go girl ! Good to see some one making a difference and wanting people to the right thing . You should think about concealed carry if your confronting people in Detroit. Keep up the good wrk. If people would just do their jobs AMERICA could be great again
U can drift with those
Gayy
You can dump tires on peoples property, BUT DONT USE PLASTIC BAGS!!!!
This kind of shit happens all over Baltimore and the City does little or NOTHING to stop it...
Democrats?9
Someone is making a deference!!🙏
This lady is a tough cookie. Power to her reporting
Great Job Ronnie
How hard would it be to get high surveillance cameras to get a plate number because the person would have to have a large truck, manpower and time to dump a large amount of tires, I seriously doubt if the person is dumping one tire at a time
I love you Ronnie Dahl. You are so tenacious and effective. Kudos.
How much are taxes for this beautiful house?
How come they didn't put up cameras the last time that the neighborhood volunteer to go clean that mess up….
Thank you Ronnie!!!!?
She looking good by the way
She is a Damn man
She ugly
Where's the law eating donuts and drinking café ?
Marc Justmarc is exactly right let's put a return for deposit casting in the side of each new tire produced charge a 5 dollar per tire fee and use half the money from that to purchase old unstamped tires. The piles would disappear overnight. There are lots of products that can be made out of old tires.
I love ur story
Surprised no one has started a tire fire yet
Well it good to see somebody trying to clean up a neighbourhood of junk tires ! The tires can be used for different things ! Time to get creative and reperpous the junk tires !
Trail cams............a wonderful invention
The city could put up cameras to see who is dumping
Another missed opportunity. The state of Michigan could open a tire recycling center, it would be cheaper than putting out tire fires. Then they could've offered county jail prisoners a reduced sentence for community service, and have them help move the tires. They can be incinerated and the ashes used to make cinderblocks.
Use prisoners to burn the tires? 🙄
set cameras up. residents take pictures of these businesses doing the dumping.
*Rubber fetish block party @16th & main st. lol*
LMFAO 😂😂😂😂😂
How can you miss someone dumping tries?
Exactly how in the world in a residential neighborhood no one see hundreds of tires being dumped from a large truck day or night
Check and watch the tire shops
The Motor City has lots of tires, but those nasty tire shops!
Start looking closer at the used tire shops.
Make sure to check the tire shop every Tire sold is a bad tire traded for it
Wrong. Some people have piles of used tires that collect over the years. Also some people get paid to pick up used tires..
Sooo, theres 2 sources for used tires that doesnt involve new tire records. Js
I hope they really get rid of the tires
When those camera on.... actions take place.
They need to put a survailence up around the neighborhood.
Another update please
I can't believe this is America oh Lord
Those tires are very dangerous. If they catch on fire they burn hot and for a long time also it is very difficult to put a tire fire out.
also very useful, here in the UK practically all tyres are recycled, metal is separated and the rubber ground down fine and used for resurfacing roads which are much better than plain tarmac roads.
I'm sorry but the USA Government is just awful
The city needs to go after tire shops not properly disposing their tires...
Set up a recycling center that pays 25 cents a tire and every crackhead in town will show up and those tires will disappear in seconds.
When the cameras leave so do the politicians! They are so full of BS it'd gag a maggot!
Welcome to Detroit
ANY new Reports on This issue. Are there still Tires there./
Wow. The neighbors need too get some cheap camera s. Good luck too the neighbors.
One year later and ronni still has the same hair
I know this is 5 years old but if u got any 20 by 12 tires I would love them I go through alot doing burnout
Burning tires is dangerous if somebody light a match to it very toxic next to a neighborhood no no no
A new road process using tires to make better stronger cheaper roads
at that point the city should impliment a audit to check the tires a shop replaces vs how many they dispose of and leave the shops who dont pay to dispose of their tires correctly on the hook for the clean up of this.
example if i own a shop and i can show proof of paying to dispose of tires properly id be fine if i couldnt provide the proof id get a portion of the cost to clean it up. the fact council is to dense to see that shows they dont care
Nobody could call the owner of the roll off for a year?
There’s companies that will take those tires, shred them down and use them for matting at playgrounds, why not just take them there?
Does no one have a cameras ?... Would that be to hard to figure out
None of the neighbors called the dumpster owner?
HELL NAW....snakes living in and under those tires
OLD SCHOOL you saw them
You just leave the news crew there for 24 7 365 days a year then the mess will be cleaned up once the cameras go away though
Captain planet would be proud
All the tire shops need a reoccurring audit that shows proof of legit companies for tire recycling.
Why didn't the City drop an empty dumpster when they picked up the full one?
Seriously what the hell is wrong with the leaders of detroit how hard is it to get people not to dumb in their neighborhood
Who is their city counsel members? Ronnie might need to run for Mayor! 😄
Wow
They wonder why ppl in Detroit move across 8 mile
I have never seen that many tires in my life, wow I don’t blame these people cause I wouldn’t want them dump in my yard either
Her voice is annoying. And yes there should be a tire buy back program. Since they shred them and re use them on roads and other products. Almost like can deposits. . .
lol it's not the governments job to know where my old tires are going when I buy a new one.
Invite a few Australians and there won’t be any tires left
@Kevin Bjork we just like blowing them up in smoke
Knew it as soon as the camera was gone the officials were gone and in their eyes the problem is gone even though it continues
It’s disgraceful that citizens complaints and concerns are just ignored. But one news story immediately gets a response
A news channel should not be needed to create a nice city. The real problem is at the city hall per definition. If those people came out of their armchair and drove a block around they would know what to do right away. Clean up everything.
Those tires are worthy a lot
It a black own tire shop on Mack one night I was coming home and they had a load of tires so I pull up behind them when they pulled over they thought I would go around them but I sat there then they pulled off i think the shop is right near bewick
the residents should take the tires and dump them in a nicer area watch them get taken care of right away.
Someone must have seen a lorry dumping them. If not put up cameras to cover vulnerable areas.
Why doesnt anybody live in those homes?
Raise taxes on all auto shops then pick them up as part of there normal trash
Ronnie Dahl is a trooper! She needs a badge!
A year and nothing but law change? How about a reward? Make it high enough to buy a home in the neighborhood. Or charge all tire companies for it. If they can't show proof of proper disposal. I live in a neighborhood with more then 20 used tire stores. Then at least 5 new tire stores. All with in 1 to1.5 miles. The township has a dumping problem. Go figure!!! If they were serious. cities would mandate all used tires to be made into new roads, new tires, playground and path cover. Has their poorly run cities ever herd of Earth Ship homes?
They should shred these and use them for something I mean damn they can be recycled if you use them as tire mulch.
Wow really they began dumping again who would have seen that coming it's not like they didn't prosecute the offending tire shops.
I'm having a hard time comprehending this entire story and the way they went about fixing it, they clearly knew who it was, then enabled them after that they didn't even confront the offending party with the judicial system. Instead blaming the city and mayor over the clean up, while warranted was skipping a couple of steps. They solved the symptoms, not the problem. Simply placing a bucket under a leaky tap.
Love this reporter she's very smart and has bigger balls than most male reporters.
The people that dump should be find 5000.00 everytime and the city should put camera's up to catch them why should these have to pay taxes
Need to catch these people in the spot dumping them fine them big time too
What in the hell is that reporter dressed to do - she looks as messy as the neighborhood!
