Disposal loads must, however, meet the following conditions:

  • A maximum of five cubic yards per load will be accepted (a five-cubic-yard load will fit in a standard size pickup truck with an eight-foot long bed filled to the top of the cab).
  • No item shall exceed four feet in any dimension or weigh more than 50 pounds.
  • No rocks, concrete, or grading and grubbing materials will be accepted.

Construction and demolition (C&D) waste and/or grading and grubbing (G&G) materials are accepted at the West Hawaiʻi Sanitary Landfill located at 71-1111 Queen Kaʻahumanu Highway six days per week (Monday through Saturday) from 7:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
