Fire Extinguisher Disposal

Getting rid of an old fire extinguisher isn’t as simple as tossing it in the trash – they need a bit more care to dispose of safely. First, check if your fire extinguisher is empty. If it’s not, you should empty it. You can do this safely by spraying it into an open, well-ventilated area until nothing comes out.

Once it’s empty, you should take it to a local recycling center where they have special ways to safely handle and recycle fire extinguishers. If this sounds like a hassle, just schedule a pickup with LoadUp. Our team will pick up your fire extinguisher and bring it to a recycling center for you.

If you’re looking to recycle a fire extinguisher, there are a couple of options. The best place to start is by calling your local fire department. Some fire departments offer recycling services for fire extinguishers or can tell you where to take them.

Another option is to check with nearby recycling centers or hazardous waste facilities. These places often accept fire extinguishers because they can handle the chemicals inside them safely. Make sure to call ahead to see if they accept extinguishers and if there are any specific instructions you should follow.

The starting cost for pickup and eco-friendly disposal of an old fire extinguisher is $89. The total cost will depend on your location and what exactly you need hauled away.
