They make good bungee cords for hauling things on touring racks...
As shims, anti-twist, rub, etc for stuff on handlebars like camera, light, etc mounts...
I've seen a co-op wrap handlebars with them..
Phoenix made bow ties out of some...
Just sayin, get creative...

At the AMS Bike Co-op in Vancouver for a while we had to personally deliver the tires to an industrial recycler in a really bike-unfriendly part of town. We would borrow the student society's pickup truck to do a delivery a few times per year. They charged by the ton. IIRC we also co-operated with other community bike shops to aggregate all our tires for a single delivery.
Whether they take bicycle tires is really up to the individual recyclers, you have to call and ask for specifics. Unfortunately the volumes are usually so low a lot of companies won't think it's worth the hassle - even if you pay a fee.
At smaller shops where I've volunteered the tires just end up in the trash.

Our local Les Schwab tire store takes them as part of their recycling program.
