Short Description

Each year an estimated 64 million gallons of leftover paint are sent to landfills nationally. Leftover paint can be recycled and used by others, keeping it out of the landfills and saving natural resources. Purchasing recycled paint helps create the market demand necessary to support the collection infrastructure for managing leftover paint.
