  • Who collects industrial gas cylinders in Melbourne?

    Transnitro collects industrial and specialised gas cylinders from manufacturing, workshops, labs, and sites across Melbourne. We handle mixed and disconnected groups when a supplier return is not possible. Do not bin or scrap high-pressure cylinders. Request a quote with photos, counts, and access details.

  • We have a cylinder and don’t know what’s in it. Can you take it?

    Yes. Unknown or unlabelled cylinders are common on cleanouts. Do not move or vent them. Transnitro can advise on identification and licensed collection in Melbourne. Send photos of markings and the site when you request a quote so the visit can be planned safely.

  • Why can’t these go to a general waste or scrap service?

    Industrial cylinders can be highly pressurised and may contain flammable or other hazardous gases. They need licensed decommissioning before steel recovery. General rubbish or scrap skips are not a legal or safe pathway in Victoria. Book Transnitro collection instead. Request a quote to arrange pickup.
