Do not throw fire extinguishers in the trash.

You may drop off your discharged fire extinguisher at:

   Kirchner Fire Extinguisher, 4410 S. Hi Point Road, McHenry, 815-385-8364

Before doing so, with a black marker, put a large "X" on the extinguisher or write on the tag, "To be recycled." Kirchner Fire Extinguisher asks that you drop off extinguishers by their door after business hours, or in the bin nearby.  

If you would like your fire extinguisher fully charged, contact Kirchner Fire Extinguisher for assistance.

Kirchner Fire Extinguisher will recycle extinguishers if possible.  Extinguishers that require disposal will be taken care of by a service provider Kirchner is able to contract with due to their business designation.
