Asbestos advice
Waste containing asbestos dust and fibres is classed as hazardous waste, which requires special handling. Asbestos must be packed separately from any other waste.
- Asbestos should be packed so that the packaging does not break at any stage of the treatment. Asbestos waste is packed, for example, in glass fibre reinforced bags or other sacks that are equally durable.
- The waste packaging and the load should always be marked with the text: “ASBESTIJÄTETTÄ. Pölyn hengittäminen vaarallista / ASBESTAVFALL. Farligt att inandas”
- Stormossen does not receive unpackaged asbestos. Such loads are rejected at the gate and must be reported to the supervisory authority (ELY centre).
Asbestos must be delivered to the waste centre separately from other waste.
Households can bring a maximum of 50 litres of asbestos to the waste reception station. Larger loads are taken to the Stormossen waste centre and weighed in on the car weighing scales. Reception Mon – Fri 7-15.
At Stormossen, asbestos is placed in the treatment site’s hazardous waste pit. The customer should notify Stormossen in advance of deliveries larger than 10 m3, to ensure that the waste can be accommodated in the hazardous waste pit.
For the safety of our staff, subcontractors and customers in the Stormossen area, roofing felt (mineral, eternit and similar) will be classified as asbestos. If the roofing felt do not contain asbestos, a valid asbestos survey report must be presented at the gate, after which the roof tiles are brought to the collection of mixed waste.
