Thank
you for participating in Maui Recycling
Service's curbside recycling program. We appreciate
your support. Our aim is to provide you with the
highest quality service that we can. Therefore, we
need your cooperation with the following policies
and procedures.
We provide guidelines for sorting your recyclables.
We ask that you comply with them as best you can.
Our drivers and helpers are very busy and are not
able to separate mixed or contaminated recyclables.
Please contact us if you have questions or need
another copy of the guidelines
and want it mailed to you.
Please have your recyclables on the
curb no later than 7AM
of your scheduled pickup day. We suggest that you
even put them out the night before; that way there
is no confusion about whether we missed your pickup
or not.
As long as your household does not
exceed 5 people and your recyclables are produced
only by a non-commercial household, there is no
(reasonable)limit to the amount we pickup.
Exceptions are: 1) Only one house per account; 2)
Not more than one cubic yard of Cardboard per
month.
We do not provide recycling containers
at this time. As long as you follow our
source-separation guidelines, almost any kind of
container is acceptable. However, we request that
you:
1) DO NOT use plastic bags for glass
as they will break and can cause injury to
handlers
2) DO
NOT use large bins (greater than 18-gal) for
heavy materials such as glass or paper; they can
become too heavy for safe lifting.
Our billing is done in advance
and by calendar quarter. Your initial pickup may
occur in the middle of a quarter and we will
pro-rate it. After that, you will receive a bill
every 3 months and your payment is due within 30
days of the invoice date. This is a non-refundable
fee, even if you miss a pickup. However if the
missed pickup is our fault, we will either schedule
a special pickup at your convenience or simply
credit you. In certain circumstances, such as
traveling off island, you can let us know at least
3 months in advance and we will not charge you for
those pickups. Please call our office to get
clarification.
Unless otherwise noted, the price for
normal curbside service is $111.00
per quarter ($35.52 / month + tax). There is
an initial one time signup fee of $10.00.
(Waived at this time) Also, if you live in a remote
area (i.e. Huelo or Makena), or your house has
difficult access, or, for whatever reason, we have
to make a pickup more than 10 feet from the
curb, there is an extra $15.00 charge per
pickup. Curbside is defined by where you bring your
garbage for pickup by Maui County refuse
trucks.
