Lowe's and Home Depot also have packets of paint hardener near the counter areas of their Paint Dept that you mix with unused paint until the mixture hardens and can't be stirred anymore. Then you dispose with normal trash. As I recall, each packet does between 1/3 to 1/2 gal. of paint. The other option would be to research your county's household hazardous materials recycling program and see if they have times or locations to bring things like unused paint.
