Asbestos Disposal Hampshire

Licensed asbestos disposal across the whole of Hampshire — Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Winchester, Andover, Fareham and every town in between. Skip hire, RoRo and van collection with transparent pricing and full Duty of Care paperwork.

County-wide asbestos disposal across Hampshire

Hampshire’s housing stock ranges from Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Southampton, Portsmouth and Winchester to inter-war and post-war estates across Basingstoke, Andover and Havant, and older rural cottages through the Test valley, Meon valley and the New Forest fringe. Garage roofs, soffits, flue pipes, Artex ceilings, pipe lagging and old boilers in these properties commonly contain asbestos that needs safe, legal disposal.

The Waste Group provides licensed asbestos disposal across the whole of Hampshire, fulfilled through our accredited national disposal partner. Whether you are a homeowner with a few garage sheets, a landlord clearing a rental, or a contractor on a commercial site, we cover the county end to end. Depending on the quantity of asbestos, you can book van collection for small domestic jobs, an asbestos skip for medium-sized jobs, or a RoRo container for larger commercial clearances. Every booking includes the Waste Consignment Note and Duty of Care paperwork required for legal disposal.

Do you need asbestos removal or asbestos disposal?

These are two different services and the difference matters:

Asbestos removal means stripping asbestos out of a building. For most asbestos types this must be done by an HSE-licensed removal contractor. We do not provide this service.
Asbestos disposal means taking away asbestos that has already been removed, bagged or wrapped. This is what we do.

If you have loose garage roof sheets, broken ceiling tiles, bags of material from a roofer, or an old boiler flue that has already been taken out — you need disposal. Call us on 01202 247716.

If the asbestos is still attached to the building and needs stripping out, you will need a licensed removal contractor first. We can then dispose of what they bag.

Asbestos skip hire across Hampshire

Asbestos skip hire is the right choice for medium-sized jobs — tradespeople clearing a domestic project, commercial property owners, landlords working through multiple garages, or builders on an extension or conversion. Asbestos skips are supplied sealed and compliant with hazardous waste regulations, and are collected directly for licensed disposal.

We supply three asbestos skip sizes across Hampshire:

6 yard open asbestos skip — suitable for small to medium loads such as a single garage roof strip or a boiler room clearance.
12 yard open asbestos skip — for larger domestic clearances or a small commercial job.
16 yard enclosed asbestos skip — fully enclosed and recommended where visible containment is required, for example on roadside jobs or commercial sites.

All skip sizes include 2 tonnes of asbestos waste. Additional tonnage is charged at the rate shown below. Hampshire falls within our Zone 5 pricing area.

Asbestos skip hire Hampshire — prices

Skip size	Includes	Price (inc VAT)
6 yard open	Up to 2 tonnes	£2,240
12 yard open	Up to 2 tonnes	£2,240
16 yard enclosed	Up to 2 tonnes	£2,240
Excess tonnage	Per tonne	£410
Admin fee	Per booking	£50

All prices include VAT. Waiting time over 30 minutes and out-of-hours call-out charges apply in line with our standard terms. A skip permit may be required for placement on a public road — confirm access at the time of booking.

Call 01202 247716 for an asbestos skip hire quote.

Asbestos RoRo hire across Hampshire

Roll-on roll-off containers are the right choice for larger asbestos clearances — demolition projects, multi-property landlord clearances, commercial and industrial sites across the county, or full building strip-outs. RoRos need good vehicle access, so they are ideal for yards and larger sites rather than narrow residential streets.

We supply three asbestos RoRo sizes across Hampshire:

20 yard open RoRo — for medium-to-large loads where an open-top container works on site.
40 yard open RoRo — for the largest commercial and demolition jobs.
35 yard enclosed RoRo — fully enclosed, required for some site permits and highly recommended for any job where visible containment matters.

All RoRo sizes include 3 tonnes of asbestos waste. Additional tonnage is charged as shown. Hampshire falls within Zone 5.

Asbestos RoRo hire Hampshire — prices

RoRo size	Includes	Price (inc VAT)
20 yard open	Up to 3 tonnes	£2,650
40 yard open	Up to 3 tonnes	£2,650
35 yard enclosed	Up to 3 tonnes	£2,650
Excess tonnage	Per tonne	£410

All prices include VAT. Admin fee and standard terms apply.

Call 01202 247716 for an asbestos RoRo hire quote.

Asbestos van collection for Hampshire homeowners

Van collection is the right option for smaller domestic jobs — a couple of garage roof sheets, an old Artex ceiling stash, a removed boiler flue, or a few bags left by a roofer. You package the asbestos to specification, we send a van to your Hampshire address, our driver loads it, and you receive your Waste Consignment Note.

Hampshire County Council accepts small amounts of bonded asbestos at some of its household waste recycling centres, but not all, and by booking only — covered below. Van collection makes sense when you have more than the site limit, non-bonded asbestos the centres won’t take, waste from a rental or commercial property, or when you simply don’t want to transport hazardous material in your own vehicle.

How it works

Package the asbestos. Whole sheets (max 6ft × 3ft, up to 25kg each) wrapped in 1000-gauge polythene. Smaller pieces double-bagged in red asbestos bags, max 15kg per bag.
Book the collection. Call us on 01202 247716 with your item count and postcode. We will confirm a collection day, usually within 3 to 5 working days.
Driver collects. Our driver arrives, loads the material, and issues your Waste Consignment Note on the spot.
Licensed disposal. The asbestos is transported under ADR regulations to a licensed hazardous waste facility.

Asbestos van collection Hampshire — prices

Item	Price (inc VAT)
Transport charge	£353
Per bag (10–15 kg)	£11.05
Per sheet or wrap (20–25 kg)	£22.35
Per door or boiler (30 kg)	£46.10
Consignment note	£50

Typical Hampshire van collection costs

Small garage roof — 10 cement sheets already wrapped: £353 transport + (10 × £22.35) + £50 consignment note = £626.50 inc VAT
Old boiler flue and 4 bags of Artex rubble: £353 + £46.10 + (4 × £11.05) + £50 = £493.30 inc VAT
Large double garage roof — 20 sheets wrapped: £353 + (20 × £22.35) + £50 = £850 inc VAT

All prices include VAT. Waste that exceeds standard item weights is subject to additional charges. If the total load exceeds 1 tonne, a second collection may be required.

How to prepare asbestos safely for collection

Whether you are hiring a skip, a RoRo or booking a van collection, asbestos must be packaged correctly before our driver arrives. This protects you, our driver, and anyone handling the waste at the disposal facility.

Do not break sheets or sand surfaces — keep all material as intact as possible. Broken edges release fibres.
Wrap whole sheets in 1000-gauge polythene. Standard sheets are 6ft × 3ft and up to 25kg each.
Double-bag smaller pieces in red asbestos bags. Bags must not exceed 15kg.
Label clearly with asbestos warning markings on bags and wrapped sheets.
Dampen material lightly with water to reduce dust. Do not soak it.
Wear proper PPE — disposable coveralls, FFP3 mask, gloves, goggles. Dispose of used PPE with the asbestos in a sealed bag.
If you are not confident handling it, hire a licensed removal contractor. We will dispose of what they bag.

For detailed guidance on safe handling, see the HSE asbestos essentials guide.

Fully licensed disposal with full Duty of Care paperwork

The Waste Group’s asbestos disposal service is fulfilled through our national disposal partner — a market-leading asbestos waste specialist operating since 2000, with the largest asbestos waste transfer station in the South East of England. Every collection runs through accredited infrastructure and qualified drivers.

Every asbestos booking includes the legal paperwork required to prove your asbestos has been disposed of lawfully:

Waste Consignment Note (HWCN) — legally required for all hazardous waste movement. Issued on collection.
Licensed waste carrier — our disposal partner holds full Environment Agency waste carrier registration.
ADR-regulated transport — asbestos is moved under dangerous goods regulations by ADR-qualified drivers.
Licensed hazardous waste facility — asbestos is taken to a permitted asbestos waste transfer station, then to licensed landfill cells. Final disposal certificate available on request.
Industry accreditations — our disposal partner is ARCA-accredited, FORS Silver certified, and an ESA and NFDC member.
Both cement-bonded and fibrous asbestos accepted — including AIB, pipe lagging, Artex, boiler insulation and contaminated soil, not just cement sheets.

Can a Hampshire recycling centre take your asbestos?

Hampshire County Council accepts small amounts of bonded (cement) asbestos at some — but not all — of its household waste recycling centres, and by booking only. Not every site takes it, so you need to check and book before travelling.

What the Hampshire sites will accept

Bonded (cement) asbestos only — no Artex, pipe lagging, AIB or insulation
At participating sites only, by pre-booked appointment — you cannot just turn up
Double-wrapped in heavy-duty polythene and sealed
Limited to a set quantity per visit; you transport it there yourself

When you will need a licensed collection instead

You have non-bonded asbestos — Artex, pipe lagging, AIB, boiler insulation or floor tiles. The Hampshire sites will not take these; we will.
You have more than the per-visit limit — a full garage roof will exceed it.
Your nearest site doesn’t take asbestos, or you don’t want to transport hazardous waste yourself.
The waste is from a commercial property, a rental you let out, or any income-generating work.

Asbestos disposal Hampshire — frequently asked questions

How much does asbestos disposal cost in Hampshire?

Hampshire falls within our Zone 5 pricing area. Van collection starts at £353 transport plus £22.35 per sheet or £11.05 per bag. An asbestos skip (6, 12 or 16 yard) is £2,240 inc VAT including up to 2 tonnes, and a RoRo is £2,650 inc VAT including 3 tonnes. Every job includes the Waste Consignment Note. Call 01202 247716 for a fixed quote.

Can I take asbestos to a recycling centre in Hampshire?

Hampshire County Council accepts small amounts of bonded (cement) asbestos at some — but not all — of its recycling centres, by booking only and within strict quantity limits. Non-bonded types such as Artex, pipe lagging and insulation are not accepted, and you must transport the sealed material there yourself. Because not every site takes it, check and book first. For non-bonded types, larger quantities, or commercial waste, a licensed collection is the practical choice.

Can I put asbestos in a regular skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must never be mixed with general waste. If asbestos is found in a standard skip, the whole load is treated as hazardous and charged at hazardous waste rates. Asbestos must go in a sealed asbestos skip or be collected by van, and must always be accompanied by a Waste Consignment Note.

What types of asbestos do you accept?

Both cement-bonded and non-bonded (fibrous) asbestos — including AIB (asbestos insulating board), Artex, pipe lagging, boiler insulation, floor tiles and contaminated soil, not just cement sheets. This is a key difference from the Hampshire council sites, which accept bonded cement asbestos only and only at some locations.

Do I need a licence to dispose of asbestos from my own home?

Householders do not need a waste carrier licence to dispose of asbestos from their own property, but the disposal itself must go through a licensed carrier and be accompanied by a Waste Consignment Note. Our service provides both, so your disposal is fully documented and legal.

Which parts of Hampshire do you cover?

The whole county — Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Winchester, Andover, Fareham, Aldershot, Farnborough and every town and village in between, across the SO, PO, RG, GU and SP postcodes. Call 01202 247716 with your postcode for a fixed quote.
