Non-household items we accept and charges

Asbestos (restrictions apply) and charges

  • The asbestos must be damped down and then double bagged or wrapped tightly in plastic as this prevents release of dust.
  • We can only accept up to 5 small (which can be carried in a car) sheets of bonded asbestos, i.e. asbestos cement products.
  • The cement bonded asbestos must be arising from a domestic property e.g. a shed roof, drainpipes, water tank.
  • Either bring help with you or bring manageable sized pieces, as staff are not able to assist you.

You must: 

  • live in Slough.
  • bring proof of address with you such as a recent utility bill and photo ID (drivers licence or passport).

Due to the hazardous nature of asbestos, when you arrive:

  • let staff know you want to dispose of asbestos
  • staff will take you to the asbestos skip and unlock it for you.
  • you will need to place it in the skip – staff will not be able to assist you.
