![]() ![]() Snap Send Solve is a platform that enables authorities and their customers to identify and solve local issues for the benefit of communities across Australia and New Zealand. Tyre Stewardship Australia, a not-for-profit organisation, was formed five years ago to implement the national Tyre Product Stewardship Scheme which promotes the development of viable markets for end-of-life tyres. “Understanding how we can work together to ‘stop the stockpile’ that is generated by illegal operators is the first step in finding sustainable end outcomes for a greater number of used tyres in Australia,” Ms Goodman said. ![]() The rest are either exported overseas or disposed to landfill, stockpiled and illegally dumped. Only 10 per cent of the almost 56 million tyres discarded annually in Australia are presently domestically recycled. The appropriate authority can then be alerted, and the problem can be solved,” said CEO of TSA, Lina Goodman. “If you see some dumped waste tyres or what you suspect is a stockpile, simply snap a photo and send a report using the app. The free smartphone app will help monitor where waste tyres are being dumped or stockpiled. Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) has partnered with the Snap Send Solve reporting application to develop an easy way for members of the public to report local stockpiles or dumping hotspots. An innovative campaign has been launched enabling members of the community to help tackle the problem of dumped and stockpiled tyres. ![]()
