ASBESTOS DISPOSAL
Most people are aware of the associated risks of handling asbestos
with good reason. That said, you should not over paying for asbestos
removal. Collins can assist. Many people also think that disposal is
prohibitively expensive. It need not be.

2. WHY IS IT DANGEROUS?
There is good information available that highlight the dangers and the
reasons why. The principle risk is inhalation of the fine dust fibres
leading to respiratory complications. This needs to be the focus of all
aspects of disposal.
WHAT IS THE DANGEROUS ASBESTOS DUST ?
Asbestos that was used in insulation, ceiling and soffit boards, some
tile adhesive contain forms of asbestos is still around you today. Due
to their fibrous or loose state, they can become airborne and inhalated
that much easier. These are categorised as ‘reportable’ and must be
dealt with by licensed contractors on site. A pre survey should
identify the asbestos type but we can still test any suspect materials
for you. Sometimes just the year of build will be enough. Generally
speaking, its use was outlawed around the mid 1980s.

3. HOW DO WE COLLECT IT?
Various options, but one thing is important is that it needs to be
bagged and wrapped to control loose fibres from escaping both in
transport and at point of disposal . All asbestos needs to be registered
by way of Consignment Note which we supply. This provides critical
and reassuring information on the waste, the transportation and
ultimately the correct disposal. This is a legal document. Please refer
to our link here WASTE Consignment.
BUT, YES, YOU CAN DELIVER IT?
We operate from both our Tattingstone and Bury branches to receive
visitors for third party disposal, especially convenient for customers
wanting to bring the waste themselves.
