Financial woes close 4 bottle redemption centers on Kauai

LIHUE >> Four bottle redemption centers on Kauai are temporarily closed because of financial issues. 

The Department of Public Works says that as of Wednesday, the four HI-5 bottle redemption centers operated by Kauai Community Recycling Services are closed. A reopening date hasn’t been set.

The closed centers are in Kekaha, Koloa, Kapaa and Kilauea. 

Several other beverage container redemption sites are still open on the island. 

Hawaii places a 5-cent deposit on each beverage container sold. Consumers can get the 5 cents back when they return containers to a redemption center.
