Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they remain under pressure and may contain chemicals. If not disposed of correctly, they can create risks for both people and the environment.

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

Yes Waste carries out fire extinguisher collections in Newham with strict safety procedures, ensuring full compliance with UK hazardous waste rules.
