Important Notes

Collection schedules and sorting rules may change. Please check the official website for the latest information.

  • Aerosol-type fire extinguishing sprays are not fire extinguishers. They go out as "Spray Cans": use up the contents and put them in the yellow container on the bottles and spray cans collection day (not Hazardous Waste; do not puncture them)
  • Old fire extinguishers, such as ones with a corroded body, dents or deformation, or a detached hose, should not be used; have them recycled right away. Do not discharge the contents or take them apart
  • If there is no recycling sticker on it, buy one and put it on. A Specified Collection Point charges collection and transport fees for pickup, and may charge storage fees when you bring it in; a Designated Collection Site charges only the sticker
