Expert Asbestos Waste Disposal in Tidworth, Wiltshire

We often get asked if you can just throw an old asbestos cement sheet into a standard skip. The short answer is a firm no. Most skip companies in Tidworth and across Wiltshire won't touch asbestos because it's classed as hazardous waste and requires specialist handling. Even the local household waste recycling centres have very strict limits on what they'll take from residents, often leaving you with a pile of waste you can’t shift. Rather than risking a fine or, worse, your health, why not let us handle it? We're fully licensed waste carriers, meaning we have the right equipment and the legal authority to transport asbestos. When we collect your waste, we provide a Waste Consignment Note. This is your 'get out of jail free' card—it's the legal proof that the material was disposed of properly at a licensed site, which is vital if you ever decide to sell your property.

Tidworth has a unique mix of properties, from older military housing to post-war prefabs, many of which were built when asbestos was a standard building material. It’s tucked away in all sorts of places you might not expect. We regularly help locals with the removal of corrugated garage roofing, which often becomes brittle and moss-covered over time. Then there’s Artex—that textured coating on ceilings that was so popular in the 70s and 80s—which frequently contains white asbestos (Chrysotile). Even the black bitumen adhesive under old vinyl floor tiles can be a hidden hazard. Whether it’s a single bag of cement fragments or a whole dismantled shed, we treat every job with the same level of care. We don't just chuck it in the van; we ensure every piece is double-wrapped in heavy-duty polythene and labelled correctly before it leaves your site.
