Kansas City residents and neighborhood groups have one more chance this year to dispose of waste tires.

The city is hosting one more collection from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday at Martin Luther King Elementary School, 4201 Indiana. The drop-off is free and there’s no limit on the number of tires, but residents must show proof that they live within the city limits of Kansas City.

During the Christmas and New Year’s holidays, city trash collection will be delayed one day, so trash and recycling that normally would be picked up Dec. 26 will be picked up Dec. 27. Trash and recycling pickup will also be delayed from Jan. 2 to Jan. 3. Trash amnesty is from Dec. 27-31. Residents may place up to 15 bags at the curb with extra trash tags, but no hazardous waste, bulky items or leaf and brush bags will be accepted.
