Asbestos: A Hazardous Substance

Asbestos is a hazardous substance that can cause serious health problems when it is breathed in. Asbestos fibers are microscopic and can easily become airborne when asbestos-containing materials are disturbed. Once they enter the lungs, they can cause damage that may not become apparent for decades.

Mesothelioma, a form of cancer that affects the lining of the lungs, has been linked to asbestos exposure. This cancer is usually fatal since it is difficult to diagnose and treat. Asbestos exposure can also lead to lung cancer and asbestosis, a chronic lung disease.

If you suspect that your home or building contains asbestos, it is essential that you get a professional asbestos survey and testing. Only a trained and certified asbestos removal company should handle asbestos-containing materials.

Asbestos Disposed of Safely

Asbestos-containing materials must be disposed of safely to prevent exposure to asbestos fibers. In many cases, asbestos materials can be safely encapsulated to prevent the fibers from becoming airborne. However, if the asbestos-containing material is damaged or deteriorating, it must be removed and disposed of by a professional asbestos removal company.

At Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon, we have the equipment and expertise to safely remove and dispose of asbestos-containing materials. We follow all regulations and guidelines for proper handling and disposal of hazardous waste. Our team works closely with local recycling facilities to ensure that as much asbestos waste as possible is recycled.

General Waste Bins Cannot Be Used

Asbestos-containing materials cannot be disposed of in general waste bins. This is because the fibers can easily become airborne and cause health risks to those who handle the waste. It is also illegal to dispose of asbestos waste in this manner.

To safely dispose of asbestos, you must hire a professional asbestos removal company, like Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon. We have the equipment and expertise to safely handle and dispose of asbestos waste, following all regulations and guidelines for hazardous waste disposal.
