Latex Paint Cans should be opened and allowed to dry completely. They then can be thrown out with your regular household garbage. *To speed up this process, waste paint hardener may be purchased at your local hardware store. Kitty litter or ashes mixed with paint also hastens drying time.

All other hazardous waste may be brought in on Tuesdays by appointment only.

Soils contaminated with these Hydrocarbons are accepted at the Landfill provided they can pass the paint filter test as set forth by the WYO D.E.Q. (EPA method 9095) which basically states that no free liquid shall be present.
