Free Residential Household Hazardous Waste Collection Events Taking Place This Month

Household Hazardous Waste collection events will be held between 7:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. on the following dates and locations:

Saturday, August 3, 2024 at the Civic Auditorium parking lot (updated entry-via Kuawa Street).

Saturday, August 17, 2024 at the West Hawai‘i Civic Center Parking Lot (entry via 74-5044 Ane Keohokālole Highway).

Hawaiʻi County holds these regular collection events, at no charge to the public, so households can conveniently dispose of acceptable household hazardous waste in a manner that protects both public health and the environment.

Acceptable household hazardous waste includes automotive fluids, used batteries, fluorescent bulbs, and pesticides.

These events are for household-generated and self-hauled waste only. Business, government agency, non-profit agency, or farm wastes are prohibited by law. Latex paint, electronic waste, and tires will NOT be accepted.

Questions regarding HHW collection events can be directed to Chris Chin-Chance, Recycling Specialist with the Department of Environmental Management, at (808) 961-8554, or via email recycle3@hawaiicounty.gov.
