GAS BOTTLES

Gas bottles can be refilled for further use and should be returned to the supplier. Please do not place gas cylinders in your dustbin or in the containers at your household waste recycling centre as they may explode if they are crushed.

Many retailers and suppliers of gas bottles will allow you to return your gas bottle once used. They are refilled and used again and again.

You could also contact your local council to see if they accept gas bottles at your local recycling centre. If they do accept them, please ask staff at the recycling centre where they should be left so they can be stored safely before being re-used.
