Clearer rules for charity donation bins

Beginning July 1, 2026, charity requests for non-perishable goods through bins come under Hawaii’s charitable-solicitation rules. Paid solicitors must post who operates each bin, how goods are sold, how the charity is paid, and when donations are not tax-deductible. Solicitors must include required terms in their charity contracts, which are available to the public. Beginning January 1, 2027, solicitors must deposit the full amount owed to a charity within 45 days after a sale. When charity payments are based on weight, solicitors must report the amount paid, the goods’ total weight, and the payment per pound or other weight measure.
