What Are Tire Sidewalls?
Tire sidewalls are the curved rubber rings cut from the sides of passenger and semi-truck tires during our processing operation. When we shred tires for TDF (tire-derived fuel) or other recycled products, the sidewalls are removed first using our BCA SWC 100E sidewall remover. Instead of discarding them, we sell them as a useful, affordable byproduct.
Sidewalls are one of the most versatile and cost-effective recycled rubber products available. They last for years without decomposing, they're weather-resistant, and they're heavy enough to hold down tarps, line feed troughs, and create durable barriers — all at a fraction of the cost of new materials.
We offer two sizes: semi-truck sidewalls ($3.50 each) for heavy-duty agricultural and industrial applications, and passenger tire sidewalls ($1.50 each) for garden edging, landscaping, and lighter-duty projects.
Common Uses for Tire Sidewalls
🌾
Silage Cover Weights
The #1 use for semi sidewalls. Heavy enough to hold down silage tarps on bunker silos and ag piles — far more effective than passenger tire sidewalls or rocks.
🏗️
Erosion Control & Barriers
Used on slopes, embankments, and drainage areas to prevent soil erosion. Their large size covers more ground per unit than other materials.
🌿
Garden Edging & Landscaping
Passenger sidewalls make effective garden bed borders, pathway edging, and decorative landscaping elements. Won't rot like wood edging.
🐄
Livestock & Farm Use
Feed trough liners, water container bases, livestock barriers, and protective bumpers around farm structures and equipment.
🏠
Construction & Site Work
Temporary barriers, wheel chocks for heavy equipment, and protective bumpers on construction and demolition sites.
♻️
DIY & Creative Projects
Planters, tire swings, obstacle courses, yard art, and recycled material craft projects for schools and communities.
