The Central Vermont Solid Waste Management District holds special collection events for paints, batteries and fluorescent bulbs FREE of charge to in-district residents. Please note that there are convenient year round drop off options throughout the state for these three material types. For more information and locations, click these links: batteries, fluorescent bulbs, paint.

Please follow these guidelines if you do bring your paint, batteries, and fluorescent bulbs to our collection:

Paint must be in identifiable cans. All paints & stains (except spray paint) will be accepted as long as the original label is still present. If label is missing take to a Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection event. Paint thinners, solvents, and spray paints also go to HHW collections.

Non-alkaline battery ends (terminals) must be taped or the batteries must be individually bagged for safety reasons
Broken fluorescent bulbs should be double bagged.

These programs are funded through Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) programs; staff and equipment costs are subsidized by CVSWMD.
