Recycling Aerosols
You can now recycle aerosols from home by:
- making sure they are empty
- removing loose plastic lids
- putting them loose in your blue top recycling bin.
Veolia Environmental Services, the waste contractor for Hampshire, has secured markets for aerosols so that they can be recycled with food tins and drink cans. Empty aerosol cans such as deodorants, hair sprays, air fresheners and furniture polish can be accepted. Please do not pierce or squash them. Aerosols with orange hazard symbols – including insecticides, oven cleaners, paints and automotive sprays – are not accepted for recycling so please put them in normal household waste bins for disposal.
