Someone dumped a bunch of these metal tubey things on our berm. GRRRR!

 

I've done the decent thing and picked them up.

 

They are metal tubey vapey things right?

 

I dont vape so I dont know what disposal instructions they come with, but I'm pretty sure it doesnt say "collect them up for several days and throw out your car window for someone else to deal with". 

 

Can I chuck them in the recycle bin (Auckland) or normal rubbish bin?

Best to check with your recycler, but similar discussion:

As above, those are discarded nitrous oxide containers, not vape related in any way shape or form.

@lias so what are they used in and why would dozens be dumped en masse?
Edit doh, just read the link, brain dead half wits, probably the neighbours kids then.
