Unwanted Paint Disposal

If you have unwanted paint, know the right way of disposing it. Oil-based paint is considered a hazardous material and can’t go in the regular trash. Latex paint is non-hazardous and if dried can be placed in a residential garbage cart.


Hennepin County residents can bring all paint and paint-related materials to a Hennepin County facility for no charge, and now there are more options too.
PaintCare provides many locations in and around Minneapolis where you can drop off cans of unwanted paint. To find the location nearest you, just put in your zip code at www.paintcare.org/drop-off-locations. To find out exactly what you can drop off and get tips for using up old paint, visit here.
