Disposal facility

Disclaimer: The data provided on this site has been compiled from available public sources and is believed to have been correct at the time of publication. Information about waste disposal facilities may change from time to time. The agency recommends that members of the public call ahead to confirm that the details provided are still accurate as facility operations may have changed. If you are a manager of a facility and the information for your facility requires amendment, please contact the agency by phone or email on 1300 326 148 or enquiries@asbestossafety.gov.au

Always call or contact your disposal facility prior to transporting any asbestos waste.

Many facilities will only accept and handle asbestos waste at certain times, in order to maximise landfill efficiency and minimise health risks. Most facilities also have procedures (for example, asbestos waste wrapping requirements) that people disposing will need to follow carefully, to ensure asbestos waste is accepted by the facility.
