THE COUNTY 3-CAN PLAN RECYCLING PILOT PROJECT CONCLUDES JUNE 30, 2020

The County would like to thank all those in the two refuse routes in South Maui that took part in the 3-Can Plan curbside recycling pilot project over the past seven years. At this time the County will be concluding the program due to budgetary shortfalls and a major increase in the costs of processing the recyclables. Landfill diversion does, however, remain a priority for the County and although the 3-Can Plan Pilot is coming to an end, the information gathered in the past seven years will assist in developing future island-wide waste reduction programs.

 As of the upcoming billing period (July 2020 – December 2020) you will no longer be charged the additional fee for the 3-Can Plan. Regular twice weekly trash pickup of your brown carts will resume starting July 1, 2020.

You must place your blue and green recycling carts out for retrieval. All accounts with carts that are not collected on the scheduled dates below will be charged $105 for each unreturned cart.

Please leave ALL THREE CARTS (brown, blue, and green) out on the following dates. County employees will be retrieving your EMPTY blue and green carts, leaving the brown carts behind to resume twice per week rubbish collection.

Monday/Thursday Collection	Tuesday/Friday Collection
Brown: Full; Green/Blue: EMPTY JULY 6 and 9*	Brown: Full; Green/Blue: EMPTY JULY 7 and 10*
*If blue/green carts are not retrieved on the first day, leave them out the second day.
FINAL BLUE/GREEN CART RETRIEVAL MAKE-UP DAY: JULY 13

Please continue to recycle!
