CO2 Canister & Cylinder Collection
Responsible solutions for CO2 canister disposal.
From home soda makers to commercial beverage systems, carbon dioxide (CO2) canisters and cylinders are common in many settings. However, as pressurised vessels, they are classified as hazardous waste and are strictly prohibited from all kerbside bins, making professional CO2 canister recycling essential. Improper disposal can lead to violent explosions in collection trucks and recycling facilities, posing a significant and avoidable danger to workers and causing costly damage to equipment. Our service provides a safe, convenient, and eco-friendly solution for all types of CO2 canister recycling across Melbourne. We handle everything from household SodaStream cylinders to larger commercial units, ensuring each one is safely decommissioned before its high-quality steel or aluminium is recovered.

Do the cylinders need to be completely empty?
For safety, please ensure cylinders are fully discharged before collection. While our team is trained to handle pressurised goods, they should not contain significant amounts of gas upon pickup.
Why can't I put a CO2 canister in my recycling bin?
Pressurised canisters are strictly forbidden in kerbside bins because they can explode when compacted or sorted, posing a serious danger to workers and damaging machinery. They must always be handled by a licensed specialist.
Are you fully licensed to handle CO2 cylinders?
Yes. Transnitro is a fully licensed Dangerous Goods business. We operate in strict compliance with all regulations set by EPA Victoria and WorkSafe Victoria, ensuring your waste is managed with the highest level of professional care.
