Paint Recycling/Reuse DISPOAL OF HOUSEHOLD PAINT First you will need to determine if the paint you’re getting rid of is Latex Paint or Oil Base Paint. LATEX PAINT or acrylic paints are fast-drying water-based paints. To dispose of latex paints open the lids and allow the paint to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Dispose of dry paint cans at the curbside with your regular garbage pick-up. Paint must be completely dry in order for them to be picked up at curbside. OIL BASED PAINT is a slow drying paint made with oil. Oil based paints cannot be disposed of at curbside. Consider using up theremainder of the oil based paint for projects around your house, or check with neighbors who might need it for their projects or crafts. If the pain can is full or un-opened, please consider donating it to a painting program or re-sale shops in your area. Oil Based Paints can be disposed of at Household Hazardous Materials (HHM) Collection events. No Household Hazardous Waste Collections scheduled at this time. SPRAY PAINT If possible, use up all the material in the spray can. Empty aerosol cans are treated like any other type of steel or aluminum can. Most communities allow disposal of empty aerosol cans in their curbside bin, however it’s always best to check with your city or township first. Aerosol cans must be completely empty (i.e., no product or propellant remains in can) before they can be disposed of in the trash.
