RePaint
RePaint is one of the initiatives run from the Townmead Road Reuse and Recycling Centre. Rather than throwing paint away as rubbish, we collect unwanted but usable paint donated by residents for redistribution to community groups and people in receipt of benefits.
Donating paint
Have you got paint you no longer need? You can leave it with us at Townmead Road Re-use and Recycling Centre.
We need usable paint like:
- Emulsion
- Gloss
- Eggshell
- Undercoat
- Primer
- Masonry paint
- Exterior paint
We cannot take:
- Paint stripper
- Thinners
- Brush cleaners
- Varnishes
- Car paint
- Aerosols
- Paint over 10 years old
- Paint not in its original container
How to apply for paint
Paint is available free of charge to community groups, charities and voluntary organisations for use related to their activities. Paint is also available to people referred by Social Services and/or other public agencies. Paint can be collected from the Townmead Centre from Monday to Friday, 9am - 3pm.
