Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are considered hazardous waste because they stay under pressure and often contain chemical substances. Without correct disposal, they can pose risks to health 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 lungs
✔️ Cylinders may rupture or explode if damaged

Yes Waste carries out fire extinguisher collections across Lambeth with strict safety standards, ensuring all disposals comply with UK hazardous waste regulations.
