Unofficial. Not Prince George’s County. Not a hauler. Permanent HHW at Brown Station closed to the public since 15 Apr 2024. Use PaintCare Maryland (locator) and mobile HHW events — not the convenience center for paint. Last checked 15 Sep 2026

Which kind is it?
1
Architectural leftover paint any day?
PaintCare Maryland · locator
County HHW page (indexed) links PaintCare from 1 Apr 2026. Free drop-off of PaintCare products. Locator only — no store addresses on this page. Typical cap 5 gal/visit; call the site.
2
Oil-based / HHW paint on a mobile event day?
County mobile HHW · 8 a.m.–1 p.m.
County residents only; ID may be required. Commercial vehicles / commercially generated items not permitted. Multiple trips not allowed for individuals or vehicles. All vehicles must be in line by 1 p.m. Locations rotate — check the county event calendar. Example indexed event: Sat 25 Apr 2026, Accokeek Library, 15773 Livingston Rd (confirm before you go; calendar moves).
3
Latex only — dry at home?
Dry · then trash (where stated)
Search-indexed county copy: latex paint is not hazardous waste; allow paint to dry completely before bagging in the trash cart. Primary HHW Acceptance Site page (indexed) also still says residents can drop latex and oil at the HHW site — and that the site is closed. Prefer PaintCare or a mobile event for wet paint; dry-and-trash only where the live page you check still says so.
4
Driving to Brown Station HHW / landfill for paint today?
Wrong building · closed
HHW Acceptance Site at 11611 White House Rd closed to the public effective 15 Apr 2024 until further notice (construction). Convenience center at 3501 Brown Station Rd is for other streams (e-waste temporary path per county pages) — not HHW paint. Landfill trash hours ≠ HHW.
5
Usable leftover paint?
Donate / share
Indexed HHW page encourages donating usable paint to relatives, friends, neighbors, or local community groups. Not a county giveaway address on the snippets used here.
