Why Correct Aerosol Disposal Matters

Aerosol disposal is important because aerosol cans can contain flammable materials and harmful chemicals. If handled or disposed of incorrectly, they can create risks to people, property and the environment.

Before disposing of an aerosol, check whether the can is empty. If it is empty, it may be suitable for recycling, but you should always follow the relevant guidance for your waste stream. However, if the can still contains product, you must take it to a designated hazardous waste facility.

Improper aerosol disposal can contribute to pollution and may cause safety hazards, including the risk of cans rupturing or exploding under pressure. Therefore, using proper disposal methods not only protects your community but also helps safeguard our planet’s resources for future generations.
