HB 5087 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the regulation of used and scrap tires by certain counties.

HB 5087 requires counties with populations of 150,000 or less to create programs for marking used and scrap tires handled by certain businesses. It directly affects tire retailers, fleet operators, and recyclers (called "generators") in those small counties. The law mandates unique identification marks on tires, allows customers to keep tires removed during new tire purchases, and requires retailers to track such tire retention. County programs must also include compliance inspections, with the law taking effect in September 2025.
