Asbestos can be disposed of at the Millar Road Landfill following strict procedures, including correct wrapping and booking procedures. Incorrectly wrapped or asbestos not booked is not permitted on site.
Asbestos is accepted in wrapped or bagged form from domestic and commercial customers. Asbestos in bulk form (for example asbestos containing material or contaminated soils) are accepted from commercial customers only; please see Commercial Waste.
The following guidelines will assist you to correctly dispose of your commercial asbestos waste at the Millar Road Landfill Facility.
- Ensure the asbestos is separated from other material for disposal.
- Double wrap the asbestos in heavy duty plastic (available from most hardware stores) and seal it with adhesive tape to prevent asbestos fibres from being released
- Label it with the words "CAUTION ASBESTOS" in letters not less than 50mm high (label available on site).
- Asbestos must be hand unloaded by resident - Millar Road Landfill staff cannot offer assistance.
- Asbestos cannot be accepted between 9am and 10am, or 12pm and 1pm.
Please read the information guides below before handling or disposing of asbestos.
All asbestos requests are required to be booked in a minimum of 24 hours prior to disposal and a booking number issued (commercial customers).
Contact the Millar Road Landfill on 9528 0333 (weekdays) or 9528 8550 (weekends) prior to disposal for important advice and to book or complete the online waste booking request form.
