We are rehabbing a turn-of-the-20th century house in town and want to dispose of any lead paint residue we remove while preparing the exterior for painting. I have thoroughly searched through all the town ordinances and nothing is addressed regarding this process, however we wish to give the appearance of going about it smartly. We were thinking of placing tarps up against the house under the areas being worked and placing the residue in plastic bags for disposal. Has anyone here ever had to do this type of work and, if so, how did your go about it? Thanks!

I personally have never had to deal with lead paint but here is an excellent website that will explain all the steps to you and what you should know about lead paint.
