Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they remain pressurised and may contain chemical substances. If the fire extinguishers are damaged or disposed of incorrectly, they can pose risks to people, property, and to the environment.

Examples of potential hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can release freezing gas that may cause burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate your eyes, lungs, and skin
✔️ Cylinders may rupture or explode if they are punctured or mishandled

Yes Waste carries out fire extinguisher collections in Skegness under strict safety controls and ensure compliance with all of the UK hazardous waste regulations.
