Licensed asbestos waste disposal

Asbestos is hazardous waste, so it can't go in a skip or a household bin. It has to be double-wrapped, labelled and taken to a site licensed to accept it. A consignment note follows the waste from collection to final disposal, so every step can be traced.

We arrange safe, legal disposal, whether it follows removal or you just need wrapped waste collected. Licensed carriers take it to authorised sites. You get the paperwork to prove it was disposed of properly, which you need for your records and your peace of mind.

Asbestos Disposal FAQs

How is asbestos waste disposed of?
Asbestos is hazardous waste, so it can't go in a skip or a household bin. It has to be double-bagged or wrapped, labelled, and taken to a site licensed to accept it. A consignment note records the waste from collection to disposal, so every step can be traced.
Does my property contain asbestos?
If your property was built or refurbished before 2000, it may well contain asbestos. It wasn't fully banned in the UK until 1999. It often turns up in roof sheets, textured coatings like Artex, floor tiles, pipe lagging and insulation board. The only reliable way to know for sure is a professional survey.
Is disturbed asbestos dangerous?
Yes. Asbestos is usually low-risk while it's intact and left alone. The danger comes when it's disturbed. Drilling, cutting, sanding or breaking it releases tiny fibres that are harmful to breathe in. If you think something contains asbestos, leave it alone. Arrange a survey or removal before any work starts.
