If you need to store waste solvents, or wastes contaminated with solvents (eg cleaning cloths), keep them in sealed containers. You should locate, use and maintain solvent storage facilities as you would other chemical storage facilities - see storing chemicals.

Even if you use water-based finishes, you'll probably still accumulate some dirty solvents over time, from cleaning if nothing else. The best solution is to take the waste to a local hazardous-waste collection center, but these are not always conveniently available or even available at all.

It can't go down the drain. Period. Instead, solvents require strict hazardous waste management. They must be placed in suitable containers that are tightly-capped, properly labeled with red hazmat tags, and designed so that no vapors or liquid might escape.

Hazardous household waste items can cause damage to health or the environment and should not be put in your waste or recycling bins. Many recycling centres accept certain types of household hazardous waste. Contact your local authority for advice or find your nearest hazardous waste disposal service below.

Denver residents may also use the City's Household Hazardous Waste Program once per calendar year by making a collection appointment. To schedule a collection appointment call Call 1-800-449-7587 or go to .wmatyourdoor.com. All participants must submit a $15 copayment at the time of their appointment.

Therefore, they should not be poured down the drain. Small quantities of organic substances should be placed in shallow vessels in fume hoods where the solvent can evaporate. Large quantities of organic substances should be disposed separately in the 'Organic Liquid' waste container located in the fume hood.

Residents and businesses in Colorado can take unwanted, leftover paint for recycling to participating paint retailers (paint, hardware, and home improvement stores) that have volunteered to take back paint. There is no charge for dropping off paint at any PaintCare drop-site.
