Disposal of asbestos waste is a highly regulated process that needs to be completed by qualified experts. As an experienced asbestos removal specialist on the Gold Coast, some of our key practices to ensure it’s done properly include:
Licensed Experts
Our team comprises fully licensed specialists who work on asbestos removal and disposal. They are trained to do it safely and adhere to Australia’s regulations. They use the correct PPE and disposal equipment to prevent asbestos exposure during removal and disposal. Our team also holds the correct licence to handle non-friable asbestos material.
Correct Packaging
All asbestos waste is disposed of in sealed bags or containers, or double-wrapped in 200 µm-thick plastic and sealed with tape. This is essential for the excavation, removal, transport, and disposal because it ensures anyone who sees the waste knows exactly what it is. This process is also important when handling contaminated household items and asbestos-contaminated soil.
Transport & Disposal
We transport the waste in a secure vehicle and have the proper documentation that complies with asbestos transport regulations. All toxic waste is taken to an EPA-approved disposal facility specifically licensed to accept hazardous waste, including asbestos. We safely dispose of all asbestos material in line with strict environmental regulations across the Gold Coast.
Why Professional Asbestos Disposal is Essential
Testing, removing, and disposing of asbestos are tasks that should only be completed by professionals to ensure all safety measures are adhered to and that no one is left with a debilitating health condition. Professional asbestos disposal also helps reduce the costs associated with contamination, exposure, and property or site damage.
Significant Health Risks
Asbestos fibres are microscopic. When they are disturbed, the particles can easily become airborne. When inhaled, these can lead to severe health conditions, including lung cancer, asbestosis, and more. That is why disposal at an accredited facility is essential. Any improper handling of friable or non-friable asbestos can significantly increase the risk of asbestos exposure.
Environmental Contamination
Asbestos waste can pollute the air, water, and soil. The fibres are extremely hard to break down and can contaminate whatever they come in contact with or are in close proximity to for years. Disposing of it correctly protects humans and the environment from the toxic fibres. This includes the safe handling and disposal of asbestos from residential and commercial properties.
Legal Consequences
Due to the serious health and environmental risks, there are strict regulations in place for the proper disposal of asbestos-related materials. If you don’t comply with them, you can receive hefty fines or face legal action, reputational damage, and costly lawsuits further down the line. Hiring an experienced asbestos removalist helps ensure all asbestos disposal regulations are followed correctly.
