We use countless items in our daily life that are also considered hazardous.

Chemicals and other hazardous materials used in homes can be dangerous to peoples' health and the environment. It is important that residents follow the product instructions when using, storing, or disposing of home hazardous waste to prevent illness, unintentional poisoning, or even fires. This page aims to educate our community on what is considered hazardous waste, how to safely use it, and proper disposal.

SOUTH METRO FIRE RESCUE IS NOT A COLLECTION SITE. 

South Metro Fire Rescue and its fire stations do NOT collect fire extinguishers or other household hazardous waste for disposal from citizens. SMFR does not recharge fire extinguishers and recommends contacting the product manufacturer for safe handling and disposal instructions.
