Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classified as hazardous waste because they remain pressurised and often contain chemicals. Without proper disposal, they can cause risks to both people and the environment.

Examples of potential hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can discharge freezing gas that causes cold burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate eyes, skin, and lungs
✔️ Cylinders may rupture or explode if mishandled

Yes Waste provides fire extinguisher disposal in Louth with strict safety procedures, ensuring compliance with UK hazardous waste standards.
