In effort to reduce the number of derelict and abandoned vehicles left on public roadways, the Hawaii County Department of Environmental Management’s Derelict/Abandoned Vehicle Section will be launching an updated Vehicle Disposal Assistance Program which allows the section to tow from private property.
The Vehicle Disposal Assistance Program provides Hawaii County residents with the opportunity to legally and properly dispose of up to two permanently junked or derelict vehicles each fiscal year.
This service is provided free of charge to residents and is subject to fund availability. Upon approval, the vehicle will be towed and disposed of.
Applications for this program are now being accepted. Registered vehicle owners and property owners are encouraged to submit their applications early, because this program will only be operational while funding is available.
Please visit www.hawaiizerowaste.org/recycle/automotive/ for the application and requirements. Please review the requirements carefully.
For questions, contact the Derelict/Abandoned Vehicle Section at (808) 961-8552 or email VDAP@hawaiicounty.gov.
