It’s springtime and that means it’s time to clean out your garage. You may have junk cars or junk parts that need to be removed, or there may be cars on your property that simply need auto parts or auto repair. Don’t put off fixing something as easy as windshield repair or having those junk cars hauled away.
If you have car paint that you no longer need, then don’t throw it in the trash or down the drain. Car paint is considered hazardous material and will contaminate the environment if it’s not disposed of properly. Some people might think it’s okay to throw car paint in the recycling bin, but that’s not okay either.
Depending on the quality of the car paint, you may be able to donate it to someone else who needs it. You can post it on your local community board, Craigslist or Freecycle. Another idea is to contact a local car renovations club or hobby shop to see if they have a donation program. If there are no takers for your free paint and you must throw it out, then contact your local hazardous waste collection program for drop-off sites.
If you have auto parts, junk parts or even a cracked windshield that needs removing, then contacting an auto repair company that does junk car removal is a great way to save you time and money. Why not enjoy some extra space on your property this season by cleaning out your garage or carport today.
