Full and part full cans of paintAbout the scheme
Our Community RePaint scheme in Burnham-on-Crouch is run by Essex County Council and operated through the local household waste recycling centre. At this site, you can drop off leftover paint from your home or collect paint for your home or local project.
Collect paint for reuse
Anyone can pick up free paint from this scheme. The paint available will vary from visit to visit depending what is donated by local residents. Most paint types are accepted. If you are visiting in a vehicle you’ll need to book through the council booking system.
Drop off leftover paint
If you are a resident in Essex and have leftover paint from your home, you can pass it on for reuse at Burnham-on-Crouch Recycling Centre.
Groups and individuals can then access the site to collect the paint and use it locally.
To drop off paint to Burnham-on-Crouch recycling centre, book through the council booking system on their website.
As this drop-off point is run by the local authority, the site is unable to accept paint donations from businesses. If you are a trader, retailer, manufacturer or other business with leftover paint, click here to find out how you can donate your leftover paint for reuse through the Community RePaint network.
Please note, if you live outside of the Essex County Council local authority area, you will not be eligible drop-off paint at this site. If there is no drop-off point in your local authority area you will need to contact your local authority for guidance on what to do with your leftover paint. You can also adapt this template letter to encourage your local authority to consider collecting leftover paint for reuse at their sites.
Essex County Council also partner with Community RePaint at their recycling centres in Canvey Witham, Maldon and Saffron Walden.
