Green Waste Recycling Starts In Oahu Neighborhoods

HONOLULU -- Honolulu's new curbside-recycling program begins on Wednesday. It starts with green waste.

Residents in parts of Mililani, Mililani Mauka and Waimanalo will be the first to get the curbside pick up on Wednesday morning.

Residents will be able to dump their green waste into the city-provided blue recycling bins.

Trucks will take the green waste to a private company called Hawaiian Earth Products, where the waste will be turned into mulch and soil products.

Some 50,000 recycling bins have sat idle in garages from Mililani to Waimanalo since legal concerns prompted the cancellation of the curbside pick up of household recyclables.
