Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they remain under pressure and may contain chemical agents. Incorrect disposal can cause injury or pollution, so licensed collection ensures every extinguisher is handled safely and recycled in line with UK environmental law.

Typical hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers releasing freezing gas that can cause burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers producing dust that irritates eyes and airways
✔️ Cylinders that can explode or rupture if damaged

Our Redbridge fire extinguisher disposal service follows all UK hazardous waste regulations to ensure safe, compliant, and responsible recycling.
