Asbestos disposal across Yeovil and south Somerset

Yeovil and the surrounding south Somerset area have a large stock of older housing — Victorian terraces around the town centre and Pen Mill, inter-war and post-war housing across Preston, Larkhill and Houndstone, and older stone-built village properties in Montacute, Odcombe, Tintinhull and Brympton. 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 is a Dorset-based operator arranging licensed asbestos disposal across Yeovil and the full BA postcode range, fulfilled through our accredited national disposal partner. 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 in Yeovil

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 a Yeovil 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 Yeovil and the BA postcodes:

  • 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.

Asbestos skip hire Yeovil — 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. Confirm drop-off access at the time of booking for narrow lanes in the surrounding villages.

Call 01202 247716 for an asbestos skip hire quote.

Asbestos RoRo hire in Yeovil

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

We supply three asbestos RoRo sizes across Yeovil and south Somerset:

  • 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.

Asbestos RoRo hire Yeovil — 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.

Asbestos van collection for Yeovil 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 Yeovil, our driver loads it, and you receive your Waste Consignment Note.

Yeovil Recycling Centre does accept small amounts of bonded asbestos by pre-booking, within a monthly allowance. Van collection makes sense when you have more than the allowance, non-bonded asbestos types the centre won’t take, waste from a rental or commercial property, or when you simply don’t want to transport hazardous material yourself. See the comparison further down this page.

How it works

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Driver collects. Our driver arrives, loads the material, and issues your Waste Consignment Note on the spot.
  4. Licensed disposal. The asbestos is transported under ADR regulations to a licensed hazardous waste facility.

Asbestos van collection Yeovil — 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 Yeovil 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 Yeovil 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 Yeovil recycling centre take your asbestos?

Yes — Yeovil Recycling Centre has dedicated asbestos containers and accepts small amounts of bonded asbestos, but only by pre-booking and within a monthly allowance.

What Yeovil recycling centre will accept

  • Bonded (cement-bonded) asbestos only — no Artex, pipe lagging, AIB or insulation
  • You must pre-book online at somerset.gov.uk/waste or by phone before visiting
  • Up to around 8 sacks or the equivalent in 2m sheets free per month across a maximum of four visits; more is chargeable
  • Wrapped or double-bagged, sheets left whole, and you must be able to transport it safely yourself

When you will need a licensed collection instead

  • You have non-bonded asbestos — Artex, pipe lagging, AIB, boiler insulation or floor tiles. The centre will not take these; we will.
  • You have more than the monthly allowance, or a whole garage roof to clear.
  • The waste is from a commercial property, a rental you let out, or any income-generating work.
  • You don’t want to transport hazardous material yourself and would rather it was collected from your door.

Asbestos disposal Yeovil — frequently asked questions

How much does asbestos disposal cost in Yeovil?

Van collection in Yeovil 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 Yeovil recycling centre?

Yes, within limits. Yeovil Recycling Centre accepts bonded (cement-bonded) asbestos by pre-booking online at somerset.gov.uk/waste or by phone — up to around 8 sacks or the equivalent in 2m sheets free per month, wrapped and whole. It will not take non-bonded asbestos (Artex, pipe lagging, AIB), commercial waste, or more than the allowance — for those 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 Yeovil Recycling Centre, which accepts cement-bonded asbestos only.

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.

How quickly can you collect asbestos in Yeovil?

Most van collections in Yeovil can be booked within 3 to 5 working days. Skip and RoRo deliveries typically take 2 to 3 working days from booking. Call 01202 247716 to check current availability.
