Taking donated paint has always caused problems for the ReStore. While many people have donated perfectly good paint most have not. We had a policy of only taking full, new cans of paint. Many would offer us paint claiming it was in full cans and in good condition when it clearly was not. Often we have put paint outside the store with a free sign on it. We probably dispose of more paint than we sell.
Due to the problems of taking paint as a donation we will no longer accept paint from the public. Paint received in the store will only be accepted if it comes from a company that sells paint. This will allow us to sell much better quality paint.
Anyone interested in disposing of paint in the state of Delaware should go to the Delaware Solid Waste Authority's website for information.
