Asbestos

Where can I dispose of Asbestos?
If you are transporting the material as a homeowner, then the material can be taken to the Koonwarra Landfill as it is classified as ‘domestic asbestos’.

If you have organised for a licensed asbestos removalist to transport the material or if it comes from a non-residential property, the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) classifies the waste as ‘commercial asbestos’ and it cannot be accepted at the Koonwarra Landfill. This material should be taken to a landfill that accepts commercial asbestos.
