Correct disposal of unwanted Fire Extinguishers
Fire extinguishers are classified as hazardous waste and must be disposed of responsibly.
To ensure correct disposal, you can:
- Visit your local recycling centre. Make sure to check first if they accept fire extinguishers before travelling.
- Contact a fire extinguisher supplier or service company. They usually offer disposal services.
