It can happen to any unsuspecting paint buyer. It could happen to you.
You go to Home Depot or Lowe's and come home with too much (non-returnable) paint for that one 10' x 12' accent wall. Or maybe you just happen to have a half-full -or even better - completely UNUSED can of paint/primer, etc., laying around.
There are probably a few private paint/waste disposal companies in your city, but the best thing to do is look for your city or county's household hazardous waste program events or facility that will collect that paint, and possibly let you swap it for another color or shop for some other items that were dropped off at the facility.
Here's a list of some major cities and their local HHW programs:
Generally, the people who run the facilities ask that you leave the paint or other product in their original containers (no garbage bags, etc.)
Tip: If your city isn't listed above, try searching online for "paint swap program" or "household hazardous waste" in your city.
