Existing restrictions for commercially generated waste have been extended at the East Hawaiʻi Regional Sort Station through June 30, 2026.
The County of Hawaiʻi Department of Environmental Management has restricted waste larger than five cubic yards. Commercially generated waste in excess of that amount must be transported to the West Hawaiʻi Sanitary Landfill.
A five-cubic-yard load will fit in a standard-sized pickup truck with an eight-foot-long bed filled to the top of the cab.
The Sort Station, located adjacent to the closed South Hilo Sanitary Landfill, is open from 7 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. every day.
