Most new homeowners aren’t thrilled to inherit a collection of old paint cans. If you’re planning to sell your home and have a stash of irrelevant paint, deck stain, or other hazardous materials, I highly recommend having it all removed.
You can do this for free through Recology’s Household Hazardous Waste Pickup Program. Simply call 415-330-1405, Monday through Friday, and let them know exactly what you need picked up. Appointments are available Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday mornings. You just need to be there to provide access to where you have the paint stored. (They don’t want you to leave anything on the curb.)
Here’s more on the program at the Recology Web site.
great tip!
