| LATEX PAINT RECYCLING PROGRAM |

More about this program. |

Latex paints can be recycled at your local transfer stations on a daily basis. Only usable latex paints in
one-gallon or larger containers are accepted – no oil base, bad paint, stains or varnishes.
The collected latex paints are inspected for quality and sorted by color. The paint is reblended, filtered
and distributed to the community in 5-gallon buckets at a reduced price. Significant discounts are available
for registered non-profit organizations and government agencies. Colors subject to availability.
