Building Recycling

BUILDING
www.habitat.org Your old cabinet parts, drywall, plumbing fixtures, doors, flooring, and windows are not just recyclable, they’re reusable. Habitat for Humanity is always looking for usable building material (and tools)

Paint: Few large-scale programs exist to make use of leftover interior and exterior paint. In Oregon, Paint Back uses donated paint to cover graffiti. You may find a taker locally if you check with churches, theater groups, schools, or Habitat for humanity. To store leftover paint-for your own or someone else’s use-place a sheet of plastic wrap under the lid, shut it tightly, and then store the can upside down in a cool place. The paint forms an airtight seal that will keep the contents fresh for years. Contact: Paint Back, 503.588.5169, ext. 5991; www.habitat.org, www.timetorecycle.org to find out more about recycling paint in your area.
