HOW TO DISPOSE OF YOUR
FIRE & SMOKE DETECTORS
 The two types of smoke detectors most commonly encountered in the United States are ionization detectors and photoelectric detectors. Ionization-type smoke detectors contain a very tiny amount of radioactive material. Photoelectric-type smoke detectors do not contain any radioactive material. Combination smoke detectors, which contain both ionization and photoelectric smoke sensors, also contain a very tiny amount of radioactive material.
Download the guidance below to learn how to tell if your fire/smoke detectors contain radioactive material and how to safely store and/or dispose of them. Click here for the guidance instructions.
