Fire Safety - Please help to keep everyone safe
Gas canisters are a fire hazard and should never be put out for collection in your recycling or refuse. Our collection crews have reported an increase in small gas canisters being put out. They can pose as a fire risk when going through the sorting process. All gas canisters should be taken to your local recycling site.
