Asbestos garages are made up of mainly cement asbestos , wooden frames , glass/wood windows and wooden doors. There are of course variations to this , but the main element is cement asbestos. The asbestos can be just on the roof in a corrugated style sheet or on the roof and sides (flat panels) As asbestos is a hazardous waste , it needs to be removed and disposed of safely and legally! Asbestos removed from your property will generally go two ways , it will either go to an Asbestos Waste Transfer Station then to Landfill or direct to Landfill. Asbestos Waste Transfer Station An asbestos waste transfer station is a site which has been specially designed to accept and store asbestos waste. The site will have been approved by the local council and Environment Agency to carry out this operation. A specialist Asbestos Waste Transfer Environmental Permit will be in place. Mostly , the asbestos from your home is brought into the asbestos site and loaded into large enclosed skips. The skips are kept compounded and locked. Once the skips are full , they are taken direct to an asbestos landfill. If you dispose of asbestos via an Asbestos Waste Transfer Station or the company you use for removal are taking it to one , make sure you have checked the sites Environmental Permit on the Environment Agency Public Register. The company will supply you with the permit number which can be checked. You can check Environmental Permits here : https://environment.data.gov.uk/public-register/view/index Asbestos Landfill Asbestos landfills are specially designed to accept asbestos waste , from bonded to fibrous. Like an asbestos waste transfer station , the landfill will also need an Environmental Permit and Planning Permission. You can check the environmental permit of the landfill here : https://environment.data.gov.uk/public-register/view/index There are strict controls in place which the landfill operator has to follow and will charge landfill tax for each ton of asbestos tipped. Specialist mapped out asbestos cells are created on the landfill site. Asbestos waste is tipped within the cell and covered over. Covering the asbestos with appropriate material , prevents the dispersion of asbestos fibres. The cells are for hazardous waste only and no non-hazardous waste should be mixed with it. Whether your asbestos is being disposed of at a transfer station or landfill , you still need a copy of the Hazardous Waste Consignment Note to prove your asbestos has been disposed of legally.

If you’re looking around for asbestos garage removal , you may be wondering what the cost could be to remove yours. There are many factors which affect the price of asbestos garage removal , so we have listed some tips on how to make it as budget friendly as possible. 1. Remove the contents of the garage Additional costs will be charged if the asbestos company have to remove your garage waste first. Furthermore , in general you will be paying asbestos operative prices for waste clearance (there’s so many cheaper ways). So make sure your garage is empty so the asbestos operatives can get straight to work. 2. Remove overgrown ivy and bushes When asbestos garage removal takes place , the operatives need to be able to get around your garage without obstacles. They are handling asbestos , so need clear access. Whilst some bushes are fine , if you have over growing bushes, trees and ivy , it will be cheaper for you to get these removed first. 3. Let the company know the correct size of the garage Most asbestos removal companies like us can quote you from a photo. So , you need to make sure you get as much information in those photos as possible. If you’re taking a photo of a garage but miss out an extension on one side , this will cause higher costs when it comes to removal day. 4. Get the garage removed before it collapses. Some garages are in poor condition but are still standing. Therefore , it is always better and cheaper to get the garage removed before it falls down. A collapsed garage becomes a more in-depth job because of the broken asbestos. Therefore if you do start to see signs of deterioration , it’s best to get that garage removed as soon as possible 5. Dismantle the garage yourself Although this option is generally not advised by professionals , a lot of home owners will remove asbestos garages themselves. So if you are planning on doing it , make sure you’ve read how to do this correctly and the type of Personal Protective Equipment you need. The HSE have handy guides on low risk asbestos removal tasks. The cost reduction comes in because you’ve done all the hard work , so all you need is a reputable company to come and collect the asbestos for disposal.
