We handle the main extinguisher types found in Bromley’s offices, schools, shops, and industrial premises:
Since extinguishers are pressurised and may contain chemicals, they must be handled by a licensed contractor. Yes Waste provides compliant disposal and recycling across Bromley and South East London.
We aim to recycle as much as possible, not just collect. Cylinders, valves, and casings are dismantled into separate materials so reusable resources can be recovered, helping reduce landfill.
By choosing Yes Waste you benefit from:
✔️ Confidence in legal and compliant disposal
✔️ Reduced environmental impact via recycling
✔️ Recovery of metals and components wherever possible
✔️ Safe collection of hazardous, pressurised extinguishers
Fire extinguishers are classified as hazardous waste because they are kept under pressure and often contain chemicals. Without correct disposal, they can pose dangers to both people and the environment.
Risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers release freezing gas that may cause cold burns
✔️ Dry powder can irritate skin, eyes, and the lungs
✔️ Cylinders may rupture or explode if damaged
Yes Waste ensures all extinguishers collected in Bromley are managed safely and disposed of in accordance with UK regulations.
