All City facilities are closed to the public as part of our response to COVID-19. Many City Services are available online. Find resources for businesses and residents.
All storm drains in Kirkland flow to the nearest creek, lake, or wetland. If paint is dumped in a storm drain, driveway, street, or gutter it can pollute our streams and be toxic to our fish. It is illegal to allow paint, stains, or rinse water from paint equipment to enter a storm drain, surface water, and/or groundwater (KMC 15.52).
Only rain down the storm drain. Rinse brushes and rollers in sinks, never outside!
Use an online paint calculator to estimate the amount needed. Paint store staff can also help you buy the right quantity.
There are recycling options for latex paint, while oil-based paint needs to be disposed at a hazardous waste facility (no cost for residents and most businesses). Learn more about how you can donate leftover paint or recycle or dispose of it properly.
