Paint Donations - Policy Updatepaint

As part of our continuing effort to improve your shopping experience, we have revised our policy for accepting paint donations. We now accept:

Full, new, never-been-used cans of paint. The paint cans must be clean with no paint drips or rust. Also, we cannot take paint that has been stored in freezing conditions. A staff member will need to inspect the cans prior to accepting the donation.

Thank you for thinking of Habitat when donating your items!
