We often get asked to haul away and dispose of paint on our house clean out projects. This is often a large challenge. One that we face with caution.
Allow us to share a few quick facts about the volume of paint that is “wasted” and disposed of annually.
With a bit of research we discovered that over 75 million gallons of paint are disposed of annually. Let us help you appreciate what this looks likes.
A typical Olympic size swimming pool holds approximately 660,000 gallons of water. That’s huge. That said, 75million gallons will fill 113 plus swimming pools, (75,000,000/660,000.)
It’s difficult to wrap your arms around that much paint!!
