Honolulu’s New Bulky Waste Collection Program Comes with Challenges

Since Honolulu launched a new bulky waste collection program in June, residents have voiced concerns about large trash pileups.
The new program, which is offered to more than 70,000 residents of single-family and multiunit residential buildings, aims to cut down on illegal dumping. But critics say the city needs to rethink the program, which is currently operating on an appointment-only pickup schedule.
