Aerosols
Last updated: 29 February 2012 11:23 UK-
At home
Most empty aerosol cans such as deodorants, hair sprays and cleaning products can now be recycled via your recycling bin or box at home. Just make sure the cans are empty, remove any loose plastic lids that can be easily taken off and don't damage them in anyway, such as piercing or squashing them.
Aerosols for products such as insecticides, oven cleaners, paints and automotive sprays – often marked with a skull and cross bones or a black cross on an orange background – cannot be collected in your recycling bin or box at home and should be placed in your normal black sack rubbish for disposal. This is due to them being potentially hazardous.
