County of Hawaii Ocean View Waste Transfer Station
928598 Paradise Makai Cir, Ocean View, HI 96704
County of Hawaii Ocean View Waste Transfer Station is the local transfer station in Ocean View where household and small commercial loads get compacted and then trucked off-island or to a distant landfill. Neighbors and folks from nearby areas come here instead of driving all the way to a bigger landfill.
Drive into a simple facility with a place to pull up and unload - large containers or a tipping area take the material and compactors and transfer trucks are the main pieces of equipment on site. Vehicles usually pull up to an unloading spot, empty their load, and then move off so the next vehicle can use the space. The site looks industrial: piles, big metal containers, and occasional heavy equipment. Weekends and seasonal cleanups often mean a line, so expect some waiting at busy times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tie down and cover loads so trash doesn't blow out while driving and during unloading.
- Bring gloves, sturdy shoes, and tarps or straps to make handling and securing items easier.
- Avoid peak weekend or holiday cleanup times if possible; plan for potential wait time during busy periods.
