Extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they are pressurised and may contain chemicals. Incorrect disposal can create risks to both people and the environment.

Typical risks include:

✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate eyes, lungs, and skin
✔️ Cylinders can rupture violently if damaged or dropped

Yes Waste ensures all extinguishers collected in Epsom & Ewell are dealt with safely and in full compliance with UK hazardous waste regulations.
