• If paint tins or tubs are completely dried out, you can fill them with sand or leave the lid off to dry.
• Upholstered seating items can be disposed of at the Ayr household waste recycling center. This includes armchairs, electrical recliner chairs, futons, bean bags, sofa cushions, floor cushions, home office chairs, kitchen and dining room chairs, sofa beds, sofas, stools, and foot stools.
