Straightforward and easy paint drop off experience. Made an appointment online, was attended right away on a Saturday afternoon. Paint is picked from the car and once done you drive away. Simple!!

So grateful that Alameda County is so progressive and proactive in getting waste back in the system. Wish more people would make the effort to get rid of toxics responsibly.

Very fast, courteous and efficient crew working there. It’s extremely helpful that they make this process very easy and hassle free. I wish there more public advertisement on these centers so people would turn to them instead of leaving it in illegal dump piles like I often see.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Compact fluorescent bulbs, high intensity discharge bulbs (HID), and light emitting diode (LED) bulbs are hazardous and must NOT go in any trash, recycling, or composting bin.
