Roadside Flares proper disposal - Discussion Item

In checking my automotive safety bag I realized the roadside flares had expired. My internet searches did not provide very good information on what to do next.

 - One site said keep them as backup (mine are 5 years expired)
 - One site said check with local garbage pickup for hazardous material disposal
 - I asked a fireman I know but did not hear back.

I do know our local recycling center has a specific area for hazardous materials where chemicals and gasoline typically go, but it seems strange to put a flare next to flammable chemicals.

Thoughts?
