HONOLULU (AP) — Cleanup at a house in Honolulu’s Kaimuki neighborhood will continue into next week because its condition is worse than anticipated.
A contractor hired by the city reported piles of compacted trash that stretched nearly floor to ceiling throughout the home.
Pacific Junk Removal began the cleanup on Tuesday and had hoped to finish the job by Saturday. They weren’t able to assess the interior of the building until Thursday, after they had hauled away 10.67 tons of trash and debris from outside the house.
City officials have put up “No Trespassing” signs on the property after reports that homeless people have camped out in the house and that people have dumped more trash. Officials have also asked police to increase patrols in the area.
