PaintCare is giving away leftover paint in good condition to households and businesses in the Redlands area as part of California’s statewide paint stewardship program. Through PaintCare leftover paint is collected at over 800 drop-off sites across California for reuse and recycling. Paint reuse (using up and giving away leftover paint) is a cost effective, efficient method of managing leftover paint that is beneficial to the community. Reuse and recycling divert leftover paint from the waste stream and the environment and put it to good use.
Attendees will be able to browse partially filled containers of a variety of products including latex- and oil-based paints, primers, and stains. Color options and volumes are not guaranteed. Paint is given away on a first-come, first served basis. Attendees will be limited to taking less than 25 gallons of free paint.
ACTEnviro Transfer Station is also a year-round drop-off site for paint recycling. Event attendees may drop-off leftover paint during this event and on other days. Visit www.paintcare.org to find year-round drop-off sites closest to you, check accepted products, and learn about limits for businesses.
