In this guide, we'll provide you with all the information you need to wrap your asbestos sheets for disposal in Sussex.

The Local Tip

Before we dive into the specifics of how to wrap asbestos sheets, it's important to note that in Sussex, you need a waste carrier license from the Environment Agency to dispose of asbestos. If you don't have one, you can hire a licensed contractor like us to handle the disposal on your behalf.

How to Wrap Asbestos Sheets

When wrapping asbestos sheets, it's important to ensure that you follow the guidelines set by the Environment Agency to prevent any health hazards. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to wrap asbestos sheets for safe disposal:

Step 1: Calculate the Length and Width of the Asbestos Sheets

Before wrapping the asbestos sheets, you need to know their exact length and width. Measure the length and width of each sheet using a tape measure to determine the amount of packaging material that you'll need.

Step 2: Choose Your Packaging Material

When wrapping asbestos sheets, you need to ensure that you use durable and safe packaging materials. We recommend using heavy-duty polythene sheeting, asbestos disposal bags or 123bigbags.

123bigbags are high-quality polypropylene bags that can hold up to 1250 kg in weight. They are perfect for wrapping asbestos sheets as they are strong, tear-resistant, and transparent, making it easy to see the contents inside.

Step 3: Stack Corrugated Asbestos Sheets Safely

If you have corrugated asbestos sheets, you need to stack them safely before wrapping them. Make sure that you stack them neatly against a wall or a fence to prevent them from falling over.

Step 4: Bag the Asbestos Sheet

Once you have stacked the corrugated asbestos sheets safely, you need to wrap them using heavy-duty polythene sheeting or asbestos disposal bags. We recommend using 123bigbags as they are much more accessible and much easier to handle.

Put the asbestos sheet sideways inside the bag, carefully avoiding any scraping or dropping. Once the asbestos sheet is inside the bag, tie the top of the bag securely.

Step 5: Label the Bags of Asbestos Sheet

After disposing of your asbestos sheet in the bag, create a label and stick it to the bag using strong adhesive glue, with descriptions such as "Asbestos sheets", "Danger", "Hazardous waste," and write the date of packaging.

Step 6: Order the Bags for Safe Asbestos Removal
