Mary DiFabio 10/20/2017 1:57 PMI researched paint disposal (Metro or PaintCare) and electronic disposal (Oregon E cycles) collection locations on line. There are many electronic E cycles locations near my home (recycle up to 7 at a time!), and recycling items like paint are also not too far way. The E cycle appears to be free; the paint recycle seems to have a cost involved. -
