Out here (California) we are as restricted as it gets I think. For throw aways I take a sharp knife and cut through the side walls about two or three inches from the bead all around the tire on both sides. Cut the tire in four equal pieces and the land fill will take them for no extra charge. If they are small worn tractor tires a sharp linoleum knife works well, if large tires I use a knife to cut the side walls and a sawzall to cut the four equal pieces. If on the rim cut through the bead (wire and all)once (after you have removed the tread portion) to get them off the rim and the land fill takes them that way, no charge. I use a 6" grinder with a stone wheel to cut the bead. If you have a sharp knife it takes almost less time to do the deed than to tell it.
Have fun!!!
