Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classified as hazardous waste because they’re stored under pressure and may contain chemicals. Incorrect disposal of them can cause harm to both people and the environment, so they must be collected and processed safely.

Examples of potential hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can discharge freezing gas that can cause burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate your skin, eyes, and lungs
✔️ Cylinders may rupture or explode if they are punctured or damaged

Yes Waste carries out fire extinguisher collections in Slough under strict safety procedures and ensure full compliance with the UK hazardous waste laws.
