Any full or mostly full tins of reusable, water-based paint that you take to Guildford Community Recycling Centre at Slyfield will be set aside for a new paint reuse shop. Residents will be asked to make a suggested donation to Macmillan Cancer Support in exchange for any paint taken from the shop.
Previously, tins of water-based paint sent to the recycling centre would be sent for disposal rather than recycling or reuse. This new scheme will keep valuable resources from going to waste, all the while raising money for a great cause and providing affordable, eco-friendly decorating options for Surrey residents.
