Trash removal: paint and construction materials

I have a lot of old cans of paint and similar materials that I want to get rid of from my home in Brooklyn. Can anyone recommend a trash pick-up service that will take these materials? (I think most of the standard junk removal services don’t take paint or stains, etc). Thanks.

It is quite a task getting rid of old paint because many trash removal services won’t pick them up. But the Junk It waste removal services ( http://www.junkit.ca/ ) haul most of the construction and renovation waste. I think they also take paint, just look up for their services.
