Vehicle Disposal Assistance Program:
In effort to reduce the number of derelict and abandoned vehicles left on public roadways, the County of Hawaiʻi, Department of Environmental Management, Derelict/Abandoned Vehicle Section will be launching an updated Vehicle Disposal Assistance Program which allows the Section to tow from private property.
The Vehicle Disposal Assistance Program provides Hawai‘i County residents with the opportunity to legally and properly dispose of up to two permanently junked or derelict vehicles each fiscal year. This service is provided free of charge to residents and is subject to fund availability. Upon approval, the vehicle will be towed and disposed of. Please review these requirements carefully. While the goal of this Program is to assist residents with safe and efficient services, failure to comply with these requirements will result in an automatic denial of your application.
Applications for this program will be accepted starting Monday, August 7, 2023. Towing services will begin once contracts are in place. Registered vehicle owners and property owners are encouraged to submit their applications early as this program will only be available while funding is available. Applications can be submitted via the U.S. Postal Service or delivered in person to 345 Kekūanāoʻa Street, Suite 41, Hilo, Hawaiʻi 96720 or emailed to VDAP@hawaiicounty.gov.
If you have any questions, please contact the Derelict/Abandoned Vehicle Section at (808) 961‐8552 or VDAP@hawaiicounty.gov.

My read is there's a derelict vehicle on my property, but I am not a county resident, I'm still outta luck. I'll apply anyway. I pay property taxes to Hawaii County every year after all.
Tow it into the street and report it as derelict I suspect.
