Island Recycling Inc

Working out of an old shipping container as an office in Kalihi, Honolulu, Jim Nutter started Island Recycling in 1983 with the goal of introducing the concept of RECYCLING as a means of helping to keep Hawaii clean and beautiful while preserving the earth’s resources.

Today, with more than 100 employees, Island Recycling sits on seven acres in Campbell Industrial Park, Kapolei, and has grown to be the State’s premier MULTI-COMMODITY recycling center, helping the public, commercial, industrial and governmental entities keep more than 60,000 tons of recyclable material out of the waste stream per year, while enhancing their bottom lines!

Accepting steel, vehicles and equipment, major appliances, non-ferrous scrap metals, wastepaper, plastics, tires, car batteries, and electronics, as well as HI-5 containers at four convenient redemption centers around Oahu, Island Recycling can be the one-stop spot for most of your recyclables, with free notary for copper sales, affordable hauling service and equipment sales and rental.

While Island Recycling accepts, processes and ships nearly 300 containers of recyclables per month to mills in Asia and the West Coast, we strive to offer friendly, personalized customer service, and the fairest rebates for your commodities, based on current market values…always in the ALOHA SPIRIT!
