Fireworks Disposal Safety Tips

🎆 Fireworks Safety Reminder from Meridian Waste 🎆

As we celebrate this Independence Day, please remember to dispose of fireworks properly and safely!

💥 DO NOT place used or unused fireworks in your trash can while they’re still hot or active — this creates a serious fire risk.

✅ Here’s how to safely dispose of fireworks:

  1. Soak used fireworks in a bucket of water for at least 15 minutes (overnight is best!).
  2. Wrap the soaked fireworks in plastic or double-bag them to keep them from drying out.
  3. Place them in your regular trash — never in recycling.

🧨 If you’re unsure or have a large amount to dispose of, call Meridian Waste or Town Hall for guidance.

Let’s all do our part to keep our community safe and fire-free this holiday! 🔥
