Asbestos Waste Disposal
Safe, compliant coordination of asbestos waste collection and disposal through licensed carriers and authorised facilities.
Legal Requirements for Asbestos Waste
Asbestos waste is classified as hazardous waste under UK regulations. It cannot be disposed of through normal waste channels. The law requires that asbestos waste is collected by a licensed waste carrier, transported safely, and disposed of at a facility authorised to accept hazardous waste.
Failure to dispose of asbestos waste correctly is a criminal offence and can result in significant fines and enforcement action from SEPA (Scottish Environment Protection Agency) and the HSE. Onea Environmental coordinates the entire disposal process to ensure full compliance.
What We Coordinate
Types of Asbestos Waste
We coordinate the disposal of all types of asbestos waste generated from our removal and encapsulation works, including:
Important
Asbestos waste must never be placed in general skips, domestic bins, or recycling streams. Even small quantities must be handled as hazardous waste. If you have asbestos waste from a previous project and are unsure how to dispose of it, contact us for guidance.
Disposal After Removal Works
Waste disposal is an integral part of every non-licensed removal and licensed removal coordination project we manage. The disposal documentation we provide — waste consignment notes, carrier details, and facility confirmation — forms part of the compliance record that dutyholders need to retain. For a full overview of the regulatory framework, see our compliance and safety standards page.
