You can sometimes find tools at the Keaau Tranfer Station garage sales on the 1st & 3rd fri & sat.
OH... Haole Queen will need to steer clear of the Keaau Transfer, as they usually have a garage sale type area open during the day, most days, as staffing allows....
Hubby & I recovered a full Craftsman tool kit from the metal recycling for their garage sale last spring - he just couldn't see letting that go to the smelter...& had a handy dandy magnetic retrieval tool.....& WAY too many Craftsman tools & I wouuldn't let him add any more & this was his way to give back...(the tool box was toast from the toss into the dumpster.....can only speculate that this was a revenge of wife/lover thing...even a landlord would have tried to sell it...)
Today a guy picked up 2 gas weed eaters with the same gas engines at the Transfer Station.
What would it take to get all of the transfer stations to have the services that are at Keaau...only donated money & volunteer time....luckily for us, there was & is a strong group of people backing the Keaau program...
Always remember a quote by Margaret Meade, Anthropologist;
