In BR they pick up hazardous waste 2 times a year.
Or you can open the can up and let it dry if it's not a lot of paint or fill it w kitty litter then put it in regular trash.

I have about 8 gallons partially used latex paint currently sitting under cover with their lids off. They been that way for about 4 months and they are about 2/3 dry enough to go in trash.

Leave open, let dry. Throw away.

I just put the lid back on and throw it in the garbage can

pour it onto a cardboard box, it will dry faster than open can, then toss in trash as long as it is latex.

Water based paints can be disposed of via regular garbage while wet or dry. People tend to let it dry out so it won't make a mess if the lid comes off.

Home Depot- Paint Hardener
They also make this stuff you mix in and it hardens the paint to throw way. Never used it so I dont know how well it works, but for $3 it's worth a shot I'd say
