Disposal of asbestos

Asbestos is a small fibrous material, widely used as an insulator in buildings and domestic goods. It has also been much used in building materials such as gutters, down spouts and roofing sheets.

It can be harmful if breathed in, although its effects may not be seen for years and therefore its disposal is controlled and you will probably need a permit. The asbestos will need to be placed in special asbestos bags, which you should purchase when you apply for the permit.

Eco friendly alternatives

Plastic and polythene packaging are often considered less green than their glass or paper-based alternatives. Plastic and polythene packaging are actually one of the greenest forms of packaging and helps cost-effectively expand shelf-lives and reduce wastage of food and other perishables. Did you know for instance that:

  • Plastic packaging can be recycled, cheapily and easily and requires less energy to do so than paper, card or glass

  • Polythene is significantly lighter than glass and paper and so results in significantly lower carbon emissions when transported
