Paint - Latex Only
Latex paint is not hazardous and can be dried out by taking off the cover and letting it dry out. To speed up the drying process you can add kitty litter, saw dust or paint hardener to absorb the paint. Once the paint is completely dry, you can bring it to the transfer station and place in trash compactor. Latex Paint that is still usable can be recycled through Recolor Paints in Hanover by paying a small fee.
