Open the lids and let them dry up. Then crush them with a sledgehammer and throw them away.

Line a cardboard box with plastic. Pour in a layer of paint and let it dry, and then pour in another layer, and so on. Once the paint is dry, it is non toxic and can thrown out in the garbage.

There is a place at our local dump that has a place just for paint cans.

most cities now-days have paint recycling businesses that mix all the half cans together and resell the results. Please think of the environment before dumping anything. Or you could try www.freecycle.com to find someone who needs paint.

i don't know how feasible this is, because i haven't done my own study, but you could take your old gum wrappers out of your regular trash, paint each side of the wrappers, hang them carefully on a clothes line with mini clothes pins, and when they are dry, neatly fold each one and place in little hand-made envelopes. then you can throw everything in your regular trash.
let me know if this works out. i'll expect an email sometime in august of 2024. talk to ya then

If it's still good why not keep it. You may need it for a project later. Then there's the option of putting it in a yard sale and you can make a few dollars on it.

Buy a couple of bags of kitty litter (the cheap clay chunky kind) and mix it in with whatever liquid you have until it solidifies, then it is just "solid waste" and you can put it in a plastic garbage bag and dispose of it along with your regular garbage. Hopefully the future generations will forgive us.
