What can you do with it?

Recommendations for safe disposal:

 

- never put fireworks, even those which are fully spent, on the bonfire 

- never dispose of them by burying

- put fully spent fireworks (but not misfired or partly spent fireworks) in refuse receptacles

- soak misfired or partly spent fireworks in a container of water in an area where they cannot be tampered with (preferably away from the display site) and contact the manufacturer or supplier for advice on disposal
