Types of Paint We Collect and Dispose

We collect and dispose of gloss, emulsion, acrylic, body shop (vehicle repair) paints, thinners, and many other types of paint. It is important to note that paint comes in different forms, some of which are classed as hazardous waste because of the chemicals within the product, while others are water-based and, therefore, non-hazardous. Hazardous types must be segregated from your general waste stream for specialist disposal. Our disposal and recycling service complies with the EA Hazardous Rules and Regulations 2016.
