LIHU‘E n County officials announced that the Kaua‘i Resource Center is scheduled to reopen tomorrow.
The center is located at 3460 Ahukini Rd. next to the Lihu‘e transfer station, approximately one-half mile from the airport.
Services offered at the center include Hi-5 bottle redemption and residential and commercial recycling drop-off: aluminum cans; cardboard; glass; mixed paper; newspaper; and plastic #1 and 2.
The center is open daily 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., except for Wednesdays and Sundays, and is closed for lunch from 11 to 11:45 a.m.
Customers are advised that the traffic pattern for the facility is the reverse of what it was two years ago. Entry to KRC is now through the north side gate via the Lihu‘e transfer station, and exit is via KRC’s main gate through the parking lot.
The new operator of KRC, Garden Isle Disposal Inc., recently closed its Niumalu facility to the public and is using it for storage and processing.
