Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Please advise us when ordering your next VinsBins if you intend on getting rid of any Asbestos material. Asbestos can be placed in our bins provided we have advanced notice and it is double wrapped securely.  Through the EPA, we are licensed to transport and temporarily store it at our site.

For larger amounts, a dedicated asbestos bin can be supplied which will come with a purpose built double lined asbestos bag, either 4cu.m or 6cu.m in size, that fits neatly in one of our bins of the same size.

Please note, if asbestos is found in a Vins Bins prior to removal from a customers property without our prior knowledge, high decontamination costs and possibly very heavy penalties may be imposed. You as the customer will be responsible for the payment of all costs immediately.

For your understanding, Asbestos can be found in many materials in houses built up until 1990. If in doubt as to whether or not a material might contain asbestos, please consult an expert before placing it in a VinsBins. Please refer to state government information http://www.epa.vic.gov.au
