What the council asks for at Hove
For a small amount of bonded asbestos from a home in the city, the council’s rules are as follows.
- Only the Hove recycling site accepts it; the Brighton site does not.
- The limit is four bags of bonded asbestos.
- Each bag must be wrapped thoroughly, twice, in plastic.
- Two pieces of ID are required: one with a photo, and one proving residence in the city.
- According to the council, large amounts require a registered waste carrier.
Loads beyond the bag limit
Note
Larger jobs
A garage roof, a run of gutters or a shed clad in panels is a larger job. We remove it from the property and collect it for disposal.
We also collect asbestos that is already bagged and waiting in a garden.
