Best Answer

Household paints contain tints and chemicals that make them undesirable in today's landfill and dump sites.

The current way to dispose of latex paint is to open the can and allow the paint to completely solidify. Then check with your local landfill/dump sites to find out their policies on how to get rid of the cans. Most Hazardous waste collections do not include latex paints, however many of them will take the dried cans as a courtesy.
