*Latex paint can be treated so that it can be discarded on your regular trash day. Simply add some kitty litter to the leftover paint, stir with a paint stir stick and store uncovered in a safe place. After several days the paint will harden. Put the cans of hardened paint inside a trash bag along with the lids.
