Tire shops around Edmonton?

So my neighbours are malicious jackasses (long story) and let the air out of my rear tire. I have to hook up a compressor to see if it's just deflated or if it's punctured somewhere, but obviously in the latter case I'll need a new tire.

I don't have a truck or anything, so does anyone know of decent shops in town that could pick it up or come out to install a new one? Or failing that, anyone able to help me get it to a shop, or install a tire here for some combination of money, beer, and gratitude?

Ordinarily I'd like to try it myself but in this case I just want it fixed as quickly as possible, if only to sell it and get a different bike once something is done about the sociopaths next door. :x

Just pull the whole wheel off, it'll be quick and cheaper as well...

I'm not sure how that didn't dawn on me, but yeah I can definitely do that. So now does anyone have suggestions for a shop in the Edmonton area where I can get a tire and have it put on? The bike's a bit older so the size is a little less common nowadays.
