Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they remain pressurised and often contain chemical substances. If not dealt with correctly, they can cause risks to both people and the environment.

Examples of potential hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can release freezing gas that causes cold burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate skin, eyes, and lungs
✔️ Cylinders can rupture or explode if mishandled

Yes Waste carries out fire extinguisher disposal across Kingston with strict safety controls, ensuring all collections comply with UK hazardous waste legislation.
