Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are considered hazardous waste as they are pressurised and contain chemicals that could harm people and the environment. Companies in Doncaster must use a licensed waste carrier for correct disposal and recycling.

Examples of risks include:

✔️ CO2 extinguishers can cause cold burns when discharged
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate the eyes, skin and lungs
✔️ Pressurised cylinders are dangerous if damaged or crushed

Choosing Yes Waste guarantees compliance with UK regulations and ensures extinguishers are recycled responsibly.
