How We Dispose of Asbestos Safely
Once asbestos has been removed from your property, it's carefully double-wrapped in heavy-duty plastic sheeting and labelled in line with WorkSafe Victoria and EPA Victoria requirements. We then transport it directly to a licensed asbestos disposal facility — asbestos waste can only legally go to a site approved to accept it, never a regular tip or skip bin.
We service Ballarat, Geelong, Melbourne's west and the wider Western Victoria region, collecting from both residential and commercial properties. Whether you've had asbestos sheeting, roofing, fencing or contaminated soil removed, we arrange compliant collection and disposal as part of the job — no need to transport it yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does asbestos disposal cost in Victoria?
Disposal costs depend on the type and quantity of asbestos waste, how it's packaged, and the distance to a licensed disposal facility. We provide free, no-obligation quotes so you know the exact cost before any work begins — contact us for a quote tailored to your job.
What's the correct way to dispose of asbestos at home?
Asbestos waste must be double-wrapped in heavy-duty plastic sheeting, clearly labelled, and taken to a facility licensed to accept it — it can never go in household bins, skip bins or a general tip. In most cases it also needs to be removed by a licensed professional rather than handled yourself, particularly for larger quantities of bonded asbestos sheeting.
Do I need a licensed contractor to dispose of asbestos, or can I do it myself?
In Victoria, asbestos removal work above certain thresholds legally requires a licensed asbestos removalist, and transport and disposal must go through an EPA-licensed facility. Using a licensed contractor like GPA ensures the job is done safely and that you're meeting your legal obligations.
Where does collected asbestos actually get disposed of?
We transport all collected asbestos waste to a facility licensed by EPA Victoria specifically to receive and bury asbestos waste. These sites are regulated to prevent fibres being released into the environment, which is why asbestos can't be taken to a standard landfill or transfer station.
How quickly can you collect and dispose of asbestos after removal?
Turnaround depends on the size of the job and current bookings, but we aim to arrange collection and disposal as promptly as possible after removal. Get in touch and we'll let you know our earliest available time for your job.
