Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they remain under pressure and can contain gases or chemicals. Improper disposal can cause harm to people and the environment. That’s why using a licensed contractor is essential for safe and compliant disposal.

Common risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers releasing freezing gas that causes burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers producing dust that irritates lungs and eyes
✔️ Cylinders that can rupture or explode if mishandled

Our Perth fire extinguisher disposal service follows strict safety and environmental procedures, ensuring every extinguisher is handled correctly and recycled responsibly.
