[Histonet] rapid freeze containers

[Mickie Johnson]

This would be very interesting for Mohs techs too. We use a lot of Freeze
Spray. Would people mind replying to 'All' so we can all get a perspective
on this?  Thanks!  I have never seen a need for or a requirement for
disposing of these as hazardous waste when empty.

Best Regards,

How is everyone disposing of their rapid freeze aerosol cans when empty? It
is considered hazardous waste here in Omaha, not bio hazard but hazardous in
the terms that the can is under pressure. We can purchase a can puncturer
for 1000.00 but that seems steep.
