Safe Asbestos Disposal in St Helens

Asbestos is classed as hazardous waste, so it needs to be disposed of properly at a licensed landfill site. The best way to approach asbestos disposal is to employ an experienced firm that not only has the necessary resources and skills to handle such materials safely but also demonstrates professionalism and commitment to compliance and health and safety.

We can’t speak for all asbestos disposal specialists, but here at DACT, we have a waste transfer fleet at our disposal – ensuring the safe transportation of asbestos waste to authorised disposal sites, which is particularly important when dealing with asbestos in schools or other high-risk areas.

We ensure our team is equipped with the appropriate PPE for asbestos disposal in St Helens or anywhere else, too – including gloves, a dust mask, and safety goggles.

Here at DACT, our asbestos disposal services are perfect for asbestos floor tiles, roof tiles, cement, guttering, and more associated materials.

We use heavy-duty polythene sheets or bags and make sure that any small pieces of asbestos are double-bagged and securely sealed.

We won’t break asbestos down into smaller pieces. This is because, when high volumes of asbestos fibres are breathed in, they can get trapped in the lungs and cause serious health problems, including asbestosis, a disease that makes breathing difficult and causes the heart to enlarge.

As waste carriers, our asbestos disposal team will provide you with a hazardous waste consignment note from the Environment Agency, including details about what’s being removed, the date, address, and all parties involved in the transfer.
