Let's Talk Paint 🎨🎉 We only accept oil-based paints as household hazardous waste (HHW) at our Collection Facilities. Latex paint, however, is not considered hazardous. The main issue with latex paint is simply that it’s a liquid, and most trash services do not accept liquids in the garbage.
If you have leftover latex paint, the good news is it can be safely disposed of at home. Just leave the lid off and allow the paint to fully dry out in the can. Once it has hardened completely, it is no longer a liquid and can be placed in your regular household trash. Be sure to bag the can before setting it out at the curb with your other waste.
