Asbestos
Asbestos waste can be disposed of at the Deniliquin landfill depot. Please provide the operator with 24 hours notice prior to bringing asbestos waste to the Deniliquin landfill.
Commercial Purposes
Asbestos transporters must report the movement of asbestos waste to the Environment Protection Authority (EPA). To help industry meet its legal obligations, the EPA has developed a new Integrated Waste Tracking Solution (IWTS) for tracking and reporting on hazardous and regulated waste.
If you're involved with the transport or disposal of asbestos waste weighing more than 100 kilograms, or more than 10 square metres pf asbestos sheeting in one load in NSW, you must track and report this waste to the EPA using the new IWTS.
Weather inhibits asbestos disposal, where wet conditions are present please phone 5898 3000 to seek disposal approval.
The IWTS generates a unique EPA consignment ID that allows each load to be monitored from the place of generation to the site of disposal. If you are planning on disposing of this waste at the Deniliquin Landfill Depot, you will meed to present this consignment ID upon entry. Persons not supplying the necessary information will be referred to the EPA for their review.
For more information on the IWTS system, refer to NSW EPA's website integrated waste tracking solution.
Commercial asbestos disposals will only be accepted during business hours between Monday and Fridays unless otherwise authorised.
Residential Purposes
Council will only accept less than 100 kg of asbestos waste material from residents. All asbestos receivals need to comply with the triple wrapping requirements. Loads exceeding this volume are to be managed by an experienced asbestos removalist. The resident will be responsible for removing asbestos from their vehicles and placing in an area where onsite staff can pick up the package using bucket and loader machinery.
For any questions, please phone us on 5898 3000.
Residential asbestos disposals will be accepted during business hours between Monday and Sunday.
