Hawaii County will hold free residential household hazardous waste-collection events next month.
The waste-collection events will occur between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., on Saturday, March 3, at the Waimea Solid Waste Transfer Station and Sunday, March 4, at the Pahoa Solid Waste Transfer Station.
These events are for household-generated and self-hauled waste only. No business or farm wastes are allowed, and electronic waste will not be accepted.
The county holds these collection events so residents can conveniently dispose of acceptable household hazardous waste in a manner that protects both public health and the environment.
Some types of acceptable household hazardous waste are automotive fluids, used batteries, fluorescent lights and pesticides.
