Household Hazardous Waste collection events will be held between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 4, at the Spencer Kalani Schutte District Park in Waimea and at the Pāhoa Recycling and Transfer Station on Sunday, March 5.
The County of Hawai‘i’s Department of Environmental Management holds these regular free public collection events so households can conveniently dispose of acceptable household hazardous waste in a manner that protects both public health and the environment. The events are for household-generated and self-hauled waste only. Business, government agency, non-profit agency, or farm wastes are prohibited by law. No latex paint, no electronic waste, and no tires will be accepted.
Acceptable household hazardous waste includes automotive fluids, used batteries, fluorescent bulbs, and pesticides. For a more complete list of acceptable or unacceptable household hazardous waste, please visit our website at https://www.hawaiizerowaste.org/recycle/householdhazardous-waste
Individuals must remain in their vehicles unless directed by authorized personnel.
