Find your nearest site for free disposal of household paint, batteries and fluorescent lights

Permanent drop-off sites for paint, batteries and fluorescent lights are typically located at council depots and transfer stations that accept other items like gas bottles, car batteries, motor oil and so on.

Contact your local council for other products you can drop off at permanent sites, or to check disposal fees and opening hours.
