Paint

Paints, varnishes and wood stains can contain hazardous chemicals or solvents including heavy metals. Do not pour paint down a drain. Local community groups, playgroups or charities will often welcome donations of useable paints. Many DIY superstores will take back unwanted paint, call them to check. We do not accept paint at any Merseyside Household Waste Recycling Centre. If you have many pots they can be classed as hazardous waste - please click here to find out more.
