Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was once widely used in the construction industry. It has great strength and insulating properties, but unfortunately, when disturbed, asbestos can release harmful fibres into the air. If inhaled, these fibres can cause serious and often fatal diseases, including:

• Asbestosis (scarring of the lungs)
• Mesothelioma (a type of cancer exclusively linked to asbestos) 
• Lung cancer 
• Pleural thickening 

Asbestos can be found in a wide range of places including walls, tiling, roofering sheets, tanks and pipes.

Because of these significant health risks, asbestos has been banned in the UK since 1999. However, it still exists in many older buildings. Whenever asbestos is removed, it must be handled with care and caution. This is why it’s essential to use specialist asbestos waste management services such as skip hire from Syte Link.  

What Is Asbestos Skip Hire?

Asbestos skip hire provides a safe and secure way to collect and transport asbestos waste from your site to a licensed disposal facility. Unlike general waste skips, asbestos skips are specially prepared and enclosed to prevent the dangerous fibres from escaping. 

One of the safest ways to dispose of asbestos, our fully compliant and qualified team will follow all health and safety procedures to ensure the material is removed as safely as possible. 

It’s important to note that asbestos must NEVER be placed in a standard skip. Only licensed carriers, such as Syte Link, are authorised to transport these hazardous materials. 

Our asbestos skip hire service covers delivery, collection, safe transportation and proper disposal of asbestos at certified waste facilities. 

Available Asbestos Skip Sizes

Choosing the right skip size for your asbestos waste is important for safety and saving money. At Syte Link, we offer a variety of skip sizes for asbestos disposal including:

• 4 yard skips (30-40 sacks)
• 6 yard skips (50-60 sacks)
• 8 yard skips (60-80 sacks)
• 12 yard skips (100-120 sacks)
• 16 yard skips (140-160 sacks)

When booking your asbestos skip, we’ll discuss the scope of your project and help you choose the most appropriate size.

Where Can You Place An Asbestos Skip?

If you place an asbestos skip on private land (like a driveway or private construction site), you will not require a skip permit, and you can place it anywhere on your land. However, if the skip needs to be placed on public land (such as public roads or pavements) you will need to obtain a skip permit from your local council. 

Due to the hazardous nature of asbestos, we always recommend keeping these skips off public roads. However, if this is not possible and you have no choice but to keep it in a public place, we can help you with acquiring a permit. Usually, these permits will last one to two weeks, but they can be extended where necessary.  

Throughout the process, we’ll always strongly consider health and safety and advise you of any additional measures that need to be taken.
