Waste tires → Tire recycling in the United States – There is a need for an article on tire recycling in the U.S. and this article primarily addresses U.S. activities, including a list of fees by state. We already have an article Tire recycling that covers world wide issues, but only briefly mentions the U.S. Recycling in the United States has a section on tires, which this article would expand as the main. I would propose redirecting Scrap tires to Tire recycling. Not U.S. content here would be merged into the later article as well. agr (talk) 19:21, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I've tried to reorganise the article, because there was much repetition of general statements split across sections. (I've not removed the repetition but gathered it together.)
 * There is considerable overlap between the articles, and a great deal of the content could be merged. But the only section that is specific to the U.S. is the table of fees. Some of the information in the "Disposal" section happens to quote U.S. statisitics, but it is not inescapably a U.S.-only topic.
 * Then we'd be left with the "Fees" section. I am not sure how encyclopaedic this information is, anyway.

 * My intent was to update and expand on the U.S. statistics. There is a lot of sourced material available, too much for the Tire recycling and Recycling in the United States articles. I think the fee section is useful, since it shows how policy depends on the actions of individual states.--agr (talk) 14:21, 13 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Support move, merge non-American-specific content into Tire recycling, and redirect Waste tires and Scrap tires to the latter. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:58, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
