Talkin’ Trash – Ep. 9 | Recycling on Kaua‘i: Sorting, Saving & Cashing In
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ever wondered what really happens when you haul your recycling and trash on Kaua‘i? In this hands-on episode of Talkin’ Trash, host Max Richardson takes listeners along for a real-life recycling run — sorting cans, bottles, cardboard, and glass at home, stopping at the Kapa‘a drop-off, and heading to the Līhu‘e transfer station to redeem HI-5s and drop off green waste.
It’s a practical, down-to-earth look at what goes where, common mistakes to avoid, and how those nickels add up — with plenty of local tips for making recycling easier (and even a little fun).
Produced by Hōʻike Kaua‘i Community Media.
