Scrap Tire Storage and Disposal Manifest Audit

Inspection template for verifying scrap tire storage controls, covered rack use, segregation from the ground, and disposal manifest documentation for compliance and environmental safety.

Site Access and Inspection Setup

• Inspection area identified and accessible
  Confirm the scrap tire storage and disposal area is clearly identified and accessible for inspection.
• Inspector reviewed current storage map or site layout
  Verify the inspector has a current layout showing tire storage locations, rack areas, and disposal staging points.
• Any blocked access or unsafe conditions observed
  Document whether access routes, aisles, or inspection paths are blocked by tires, debris, or equipment.
• Photo documentation captured of overall storage area
  Capture overview photos showing tire storage condition, rack use, and general housekeeping.

Scrap Tire Storage Controls

• Scrap tires are stored on covered racks or approved elevated storage
  Confirm tires are stored on covered racks or another approved storage system and not placed directly on the ground.
• No scrap tires stored directly on soil, pavement, or bare ground
  Verify there are no tire piles or loose tires in direct contact with the ground surface.
• Covered racks are intact and structurally stable
  Check that racks are not bent, overloaded, corroded, or otherwise compromised.
• Tires are segregated by type or status
  Confirm scrap tires are separated from reusable inventory, customer tires, and any quarantined or damaged tires.
• Storage area is free of excessive accumulation
  Assess whether tire quantity appears within approved storage limits and does not indicate prolonged accumulation.

Fire, Weather, and Housekeeping Controls

• Storage area is protected from standing water and storm exposure
  Verify tires are protected from weather-related degradation and water accumulation that could create environmental or pest issues.
• Combustible debris and ignition sources are controlled
  Check for trash, fuel containers, smoking materials, or other ignition sources near scrap tire storage.
• Aisles and emergency access routes remain clear
  Confirm access routes for emergency response and routine handling are unobstructed.
• Housekeeping around tire storage is acceptable
  Evaluate whether the area is free of loose debris, standing water, and trip hazards.

Disposal Manifest and Chain of Custody

• Disposal manifest present for each tire shipment
  Verify a manifest, bill of lading, or equivalent disposal record exists for each outbound scrap tire shipment.
• Manifest includes generator, transporter, and destination details
  Check that the document identifies the tire generator, transporter, receiving facility, and shipment date.
• Manifest quantities match observed or logged tire counts
  Compare documented tire counts or weights against inventory logs and observed storage records.
• Signed receipt or closure confirmation on file
  Confirm the outbound shipment has a signed receipt, closure notice, or equivalent confirmation from the receiving facility.

Exceptions, Corrective Actions, and Sign-Off

• Deficiencies documented with corrective actions
  Record all deficiencies, non-conformances, and required corrective actions with responsible owner and due date.
• Follow-up inspection required
  Indicate whether a reinspection is needed due to critical findings or unresolved deficiencies.
• Inspector signature
  Inspector signs to confirm the audit findings are accurate and complete.
• Inspection completion date and time
  Record when the inspection was completed.
