Asbestos Disposal Bath — Pricing
Asbestos waste must be disposed of through a licensed carrier with documented chain of custody. The Waste Group has been arranging asbestos disposal across the South of England since 2007. Bath sits within Zone 5 of our national disposal partner network, with consistent published pricing for every booking.
| Service | Best For | Price (inc VAT) |
|---|---|---|
| Van Collection | Small quantities — Artex sheets, ceiling tiles, sheeting bags, single-room strip-out | From £450 |
| Asbestos Skip | Renovation projects, multi-room strip-outs, garage demolition | £2,240 |
| Asbestos RoRo | Commercial demolition, large building site, bulk asbestos cement | £2,650 |
All Bath asbestos disposal bookings include Waste Consignment Note paperwork and a final disposal certificate available on request. Skip and RoRo prices include 2 tonnes (skip) or 3 tonnes (RoRo) of asbestos waste — excess tonnage charged separately. Call 0800 652 0160 for a confirmed price for your specific Bath address and waste type.
For small jobs that don’t justify a skip — a few Artex sheets, a bagged single-room strip-out, a small garage roof — our asbestos van collection service from £340 inc VAT may be a more cost-effective option.
What is Asbestos and Why is it Regulated?
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was used extensively in UK construction from the 1950s until it was fully banned in 1999. Bath properties built or refurbished before 2000 are likely to contain asbestos in some form — typically in textured ceiling coatings (Artex), pipe lagging, asbestos cement garage roofs and floor tiles.
Asbestos becomes a health hazard once damaged or disturbed and the microscopic fibres are released into the air. These fibres can cause serious lung diseases including mesothelioma, asbestosis and lung cancer, often decades after exposure. UK law (the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012) requires asbestos waste to be transported and disposed of through a licensed carrier with full documentation.
The Waste Group provides licensed asbestos disposal in Bath that meets all regulatory requirements — Environment Agency authorisation, ARCA-accredited disposal partner, full Waste Consignment Notes, and a final disposal certificate available on request for trade and commercial customers.
Worked Example — Bath Asbestos Disposal
To make pricing tangible, here is a typical Bath asbestos van collection job:
Job: Bath homeowner removing 6 asbestos cement garage roof sheets during a garage rebuild.
| Item | Detail | Cost (ex VAT) |
|---|---|---|
| Transport to Bath | Single visit, BA postcode (Zone 5) | £294 |
| 6 asbestos cement sheets | £18.60 each, double-bagged on site | £111.60 |
| Waste Consignment Note | Flat admin fee per booking | £42 |
| Subtotal ex VAT | £447.60 | |
| Total inc VAT | £537 |
For larger jobs — a full garage demolition with 30+ asbestos sheets, or a commercial site with bulk asbestos cement — an asbestos skip (£2,240 inc VAT) or RoRo container (£2,650 inc VAT) is usually more cost-effective than multiple van collections. Call 0800 652 0160 for advice on the best option for your Bath project.
Which Asbestos Disposal Service Do You Need in Bath?
Three service options are available for asbestos disposal in Bath. The right choice depends on the volume and type of asbestos you need to remove.
Van Collection — Small Quantities
Best for: a few asbestos cement sheets, Artex ceiling fragments, asbestos floor tiles, pipe lagging in small amounts, asbestos sheeting bags from a single-room renovation. Our van team collects from the kerbside or driveway, double-bags on site if not already prepared, and removes for licensed disposal. Most Bath van collections are scheduled within 5 to 10 working days. Starts from £493 inc VAT.
Asbestos Skip — Renovation Projects
Best for: a full garage demolition, multi-room renovation, garden building demolition, bath property refurbishment with significant asbestos cement removal. The asbestos skip is delivered enclosed and locked, you load directly, we collect and dispose under licence. Includes 2 tonnes of asbestos waste at £2,240 inc VAT.
Asbestos RoRo — Commercial and Large Jobs
Best for: commercial demolition, large building site, school or hospital refurbishment, bulk asbestos cement disposal. RoRo containers are delivered, filled over multiple days, and removed for disposal. Includes 3 tonnes of asbestos waste at £2,650 inc VAT.
If you are unsure which option suits your Bath project, send us a description or photo of the waste and we will recommend the most cost-effective approach. Call 0800 652 0160.
Can I Take Asbestos to Bath HWRC?
Bath HWRC (Midland Road) accepts very small quantities of bonded asbestos cement only, and only by appointment. The site cannot accept friable asbestos, asbestos insulation, Artex, ceiling tiles, asbestos floor tiles, pipe lagging or any unidentified asbestos-containing material.
Typical Bath HWRC asbestos limits include:
- Bonded asbestos cement only (e.g. flat or corrugated cement sheets)
- Maximum quantity per visit is small — typically up to two double-wrapped sheets
- Asbestos must be double-bagged in approved heavy-duty plastic before arrival
- Booking required in advance — drop-ins not accepted
- Photo ID and proof of BA postcode address required
If your asbestos waste does not meet these criteria — which is most asbestos waste — you must use a licensed carrier. The Waste Group provides licensed collection from your Bath address with full Waste Consignment Note paperwork. Call 0800 652 0160 if you are unsure whether your waste qualifies for HWRC drop-off or needs licensed collection.
HWRC rules are set by Bath and North East Somerset Council and may change. Confirm current rules with the council before travelling — but do not transport unidentified or friable asbestos to any HWRC under any circumstances.
How Bath Asbestos Disposal Works — Step by Step
Booking asbestos disposal in Bath with The Waste Group follows a documented process designed to keep you compliant and minimise on-site disruption:
- Call or quote request: Call 0800 652 0160 or use the online quote form. Tell us the Bath postcode, the type of asbestos (Artex, cement sheet, pipe lagging, unknown), and the approximate quantity.
- Quote and booking: We confirm pricing — van collection from £493, asbestos skip £2,240, asbestos RoRo £2,650 inc VAT — and agree a collection date. Most Bath bookings are scheduled within 5 to 10 working days.
- Pre-collection guidance: If you are removing the asbestos yourself, we provide guidance on safe handling and double-bagging. If the asbestos requires professional removal, we can refer you to an HSE-licensed removal contractor.
- Collection day: Our licensed driver attends your Bath address. The asbestos is loaded into the van or container under controlled conditions. A Waste Consignment Note is completed on site and you receive a copy.
- Licensed disposal: The asbestos is transported to our ARCA-accredited disposal partner’s transfer station, where it is processed for final disposal at a permitted hazardous waste landfill.
- Documentation: A final disposal certificate is available on request — this is required for commercial and trade jobs and recommended for any homeowner who wants the full audit trail.
Every step is documented end to end. Call 0800 652 0160 to start the process.
For customers outside Bath, we also cover asbestos disposal in Devizes and the Wiltshire SN10 postcode area.
