Hi Mike,
A good way to dispose of the extinguisher is to use it in practise on
a fire built for the purpose, preferably with the direction of
someone who has some experience. There is basic technique that is
more effective than waving the thing around.
Then use a shop to recharge & certify or chuck it in the metal
recycle bin. If it's an old but good quality unit it might be better
than a new one after the re-cert.

Interesting discussion...i changed out my extinguishers this summer
because they were 15 years old.
Does anyone know how to properly dispose of old extinguishers that
are still charged??
