Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they are stored under pressure and often contain chemicals. If not managed correctly, they can present risks to both people and the environment.

Common risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can release freezing gas that causes burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate the eyes, lungs, and skin
✔️ Cylinders may rupture violently if dropped or mishandled

Yes Waste ensures all extinguishers collected in Halesowen are handled safely and disposed of in line with UK hazardous waste regulations.
