The Problem

Old Paint Tins Stacking Up? We Collect and Dispose of Them Safely

Old paint is one of the most commonly stockpiled items in Falkirk homes. It builds up in garages, sheds and cupboards after every decorating project. The problem is, you can't put paint tins in your general waste bin — especially if they still contain liquid paint.

Oil-based paints, varnishes and wood stains are classified as hazardous waste. Even water-based emulsion needs proper disposal if liquid. Most recycling centres have strict limits, and leaving paint outside risks contamination. You need a licensed carrier to handle it correctly.

  • Paint tins can't go in your general waste or recycling bin
  • Oil-based paints are classified as hazardous waste
  • Most recycling centres limit paint drop-offs
  • Liquid paint risks contaminating other waste and the environment
  • Stockpiled paint tins take up valuable storage space

Had about 40 old paint tins in the garage — some from 15 years ago. A mix of emulsion, gloss, varnish and primer. Cheaper Than A Skip collected the lot for £30 and handled all the disposal. Finally got my garage back.
