Ed,
Give  your local haz-mat a call, they will be very helpful. Here in 
Portland Oregon they have a site that is open 6 days a week. It is 
free, they prefer to know what is in the container, but is not 
mandatory. Don't forget to take your old paint, batteries, household 
chemicals, and old motor oil. They will love you for it.
