Keauhou Transfer Station

Keauhou Transfer Station is the small transfer station on Mamalahoa Highway in Holualoa where locals drop off household trash, small trailers and bagged loads before it gets compacted and hauled to a landfill. Neighbors use it when they want a quicker trip than driving all the way to a distant landfill.

The site feels like a county lot with an entrance booth and lanes for cars and trucks to pull up and unload. Transfer stations commonly have a scale and charge by weight, so plan for a stop on the way out. Recycling containers and larger roll-off bins are typically set to the side, while unloading pads and compacting equipment sit further in. Weekends and community clean-up days often have lines, so expect some wait time then.
