Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are considered hazardous waste because they remain pressurised and often contain chemicals. Without correct disposal, they can present risks to people and the environment.

Examples of potential hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can discharge freezing gas that causes cold burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate skin, eyes, and breathing
✔️ Cylinders may explode if dropped or damaged

Yes Waste provides safe fire extinguisher disposal across Kettering with strict safety measures, ensuring all disposals comply with UK hazardous waste legislation.
