Building and DIY Materials

Paint

Paint cannot be recycled in your local council’s kerbside recycling bin, box or bag.

If the paint tins are empty and the residual paint has dried out, you can double wrap them and put them in your kerbside rubbish bin.

Small amounts of paint (up to five tins) can be recycled at some local Household Waste Recycling Centres.
