Our scheme in Calverton is run by Veolia Environmental Services and Nottinghamshire County Council. It is 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.
Drop off leftover paint
If you are a resident within the Nottinghamshire local authority area and you have leftover paint from your home that you’d like to pass on for reuse, visit the drop-off point on-site at Calverton HWRC to leave your paint. You will need to register your vehicle here before visiting this site.
Groups and individuals will then be able to access the site to collect the paint and use it locally. Find opening times for the household waste recycling centre here.
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 Nottinghamshire County Council local authority area, you will not be eligible to access the 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.
Collect paint for your home or project

Our scheme in East London, run by Forest Recycling Project, is one of the oldest and largest in the network, joining the network in 1998 and collecting over 40,000 litres of paint each year.
The majority of their paint comes from local recycling centres where they collect paint which has been dropped off by local residents.
Reclaimed paint of all types is available in all colours and sizes from the scheme’s two premises – ‘The Paint Place Reuse Project’ in Leyton and their shop ‘The Paint Place’ in Walthamstow (click here for further details).
The Paint Place Reuse Project is where their paint is processed and stored. Due to this, the scheme stocks larger volumes of paint at this premises, so it is good for charities and groups needing larger amounts of paint for their project.
The Paint Place shop has a smaller selection of popular colours and brands, making it a good place to visit if you need smaller amounts for a home decorating project.
The two locations are close to each other so you can visit both, or staff can advise you on stock at the two places.
You can also complete a paint request form on their website. The scheme operates a free membership scheme which gives not-for-profit organisations access to exclusive offers.
Please note, if you are looking to pass on your leftover paint for reuse, this scheme does not accept paint donations from householders. Instead, please use our householder drop-off point finder to find out if you have a Community RePaint householder paint drop-off point in your area.
