From the Wellesley Recycling & Disposal Facility:

With painting season coming to a close soon, you may want to clean out those unused, partially used, old or otherwise unnecessary cans of paint. The Wellesley RDF will accept latex and oil-based alkyd paint for recycling. Last year alone, the RDF collected over 5 tons of paint!

You can drop your paint off at the RDF on the first Saturday of the month, from April thru October, between 9 AM and 1 PM. Paint is available from the shed during regular business hours. Rather than immediately buying new paint, see what’s available-you never know what you’ll find.

A reminder-if you have turpentine, other solvents, or unmarked containers, bring those materials to the Household Hazardous Waste Products Collection in the spring we can not accept them now.

For more information, contact Superintendent Gordon Martin at 781-235-7600 x 3340 , or visit the RDF website: www.wellesleyma.gov
