County opens Christmas tree recycling points

LIHU‘E — Christmas trees are being accepted for recycling daily, except on holidays, at the green waste drop-off areas of the Hanalei, Hanapepe, Kapa‘a and Lihu‘e refuse transfer stations, from 7:15 a.m. to 3:15 p.m., and the Kekaha Landfill from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

A drop-off point for tree recycling is also at Kaua‘i Nursery and Landscaping on Kaumuali‘i Highway in Puhi, seven days a week. Trees can be loaded onto a truck that’s parked in the KNL driveway.

The trees must be bare and free of flocking, tinsel and ornaments when they are brought to all recycling locations. Green waste sites close during inclement weather. For updates or more information, visit kauai.gov/transferstations.

Illegal dumping on public property could fall under the county’s litter ordinance and could result in a fine.
