What can I do with... oil-based paint
I know what you're thinking. It's spring time. You have a whole garage full of oil-based paint that you're looking to dispose of, but you know you don't want to plop that in your regular 'ole trash to be carried away to the landfill. Let me personally applaud you for thinking outside that garbage can box!Unfortunately, Austin Creative Reuse cannot currently accept any oil-based paint, but here are some places you can take your left over oil-based paint:As always, try Freecycling or giving away the left over paint for free on Craigslist.You can also have it properly disposed of by taking it to The Household Hazardous Waste Facility. They will properly dispose up to 30 gallons of hazardous household materials for free. Anything beyond that and you may be required to pay a disposal fee.Tip: In the future, you may consider a latex or acrylic paint for your painting needs. These paints are much easier to find a reuse home for (we accept paint that isn't oil-based!) and they're better for your health and the environment.Thanks, again, for finding a proper home for your materials!
