Paint Exchange Program
Where to drop off paint
Residents with paint cans that are less than a quarter full are encouraged to dry out the remaining paint. The dry can may be placed in the regular garbage.
Residents with larger quantities of paint can bring it to the Washington County Landfill to participate in the Paint exchange Program.
Residents with expired paint are encouraged to take advantage of our next Household Hazardous Waste collection Day.
Free Service
There is no cost to our residents to drop off or to pick up paint.
Small Businesses
Small businesses that meet the “conditionally exempt small quantity generators” criteria meaning they produce less than 220lbs per month can drop off their paint for a fee of $3 per gallon.
Key to a Successful Program
In order for this program to truly be successful, residents must drop off quality paint. This will allow residents to truly “shop” for paint here at the landfill.
We encourage you that next time you have a house, school, or group project that requires paint, to look at the paint at our Paint Shed here at the landfill first. Remember it is free!
