G'day Ruth,
I think you can find detailed information on storage and disposal of this chemical on page 2 via the following link:
With best wishes,

Good Afternoon/Evening,
What safeguards are needed to dispose of a bottle of potassium thiocyanate which broke open (presumably, from moisture absorption/deliquescence) in a lab refrigerator? Someone said there is a possibility of release of a toxic gas and recommended
use of a respirator.
Thank you!
Ruth Ann
