Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste since they stay under pressure and can contain gases or chemicals that may be harmful if released. To keep things safe and compliant, they need to be collected and treated by a licensed hazardous waste contractor.

Common risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers releasing freezing gas that can cause burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers producing fine dust that irritates the lungs and skin
✔️ Cylinders that could explode if crushed or mishandled

Our Rugby fire extinguisher disposal service follows strict UK safety standards, ensuring all waste is recycled and documented correctly.
