Wondering what to do with your leftover paint?

Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity ReStore is the first ReStore in Colorado to be a certified PaintCare drop-off site. That means that the paint we collect will be recycled by Green Sheen -- sorted and managed for reuse, recycling, energy recovery, or safe disposal -- and then can be resold in our ReStore. We can accept up to 10 gallons of paint per person. Partial gallons are fine. Paint accepted includes latex and oil-based house paint, stains and varnish in containers up to 5 gallons in size. Please note: We do not accept aerosols (spray paint or other spray products), containers without original labels, or containers that are leaking or empty.
