Paint recycling gets even easier
Got leftover paint at home? Recycle it! Oregon’s industry-run program for paint recycling makes it convenient to drop off unwanted paint and keep reusable materials out of landfills. All the leftover latex paint goes to Metro, which turns quality batches into MetroPaint, available at Miller Paint stores, MetroPaint Swan Island store, select Fred Meyer locations and independent retailers in Oregon and Washington. For the nearest paint-collection center, call 1-800-CLEANUP (800-253-2687) or visit the PaintCare website.
