GFL has the required permits to haul and dispose of asbestos containing materials, both friable and non-friable. Landfill requires 24 hours notice for all asbestos-containing loads.
Friable asbestos-containing materials (ACM) include any materials containing more than 1% asbestos (as determined by Polarized Light Microscopy) that, when dry, may be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
Non-friable ACM include materials containing more than 1% asbestos (as determined by Polarized Light Microscopy) that, when dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. Under the Asbestos NESHAP, non-friable ACM is divided into two categories. Category I non-friable ACM are asbestos-containing resilient floor coverings (commonly known as vinyl asbestos tile (VAT), asphalt roofing products, packings and gaskets. These materials rarely become friable. All other non-friable ACM are considered Category II non-friable ACM.
Please contact your local branch for more information about these services.
