The Woy Woy tip takes asbestos by booking only

The Woy Woy Waste Management Facility on Nagari Road accepts asbestos by booking only, made through Central Coast Council (Council waste facilities). Every load needs to be booked at least 24 hours ahead.

Confirm your receiving time when booking. Council says asbestos isn't accepted within one hour of closing (Central Coast Council).

Being close to the tip only helps if the load is wrapped, booked and arrives on time. When we do the job, all of that is part of the quote.

How Woy Woy grew, and why it matters for asbestos

Resort growth in Woy Woy followed the railway from the late 1880s. Strong post-war growth came next, then rail electrification to Gosford in 1960 helped bring the Peninsula into Sydney's commuter belt in the 1960s and 70s (Council's adopted Central Coast Thematic History).

Those were decades when asbestos cement sheeting was a common building product in NSW. A house, garage, extension or fence built or renovated before 1990 may contain it in roof sheeting, eaves, wet areas, wall linings and boundary fences. Building age is a clue, not a diagnosis: only testing confirms asbestos.

Working around the old town centre

Woy Woy's old commercial core sits around the railway station and the Brisbane Water foreshore (Council heritage resources). If your property is listed or in a heritage area, check with Central Coast Council before major work.

Removing more than 10m² of bonded asbestos, or any friable asbestos, needs a SafeWork NSW licensed removalist, who must notify SafeWork NSW at least 5 calendar days before the work starts (SafeWork NSW).

Taking a small load to Woy Woy yourself?

Only asbestos generated within the Central Coast council area is accepted. Wet it down, wrap it in two layers of 200-micron builders' plastic, seal it with waterproof tape and keep each package no higher than 500mm. Tell the weighbridge it's asbestos: loads are inspected and can be refused. Bundles are unloaded by hand and placed intact, council machinery won't push loads off, and only one vehicle unloads at a time (Council wrapping guidelines).

Council charges asbestos as special waste by the tonne. The 2025/26 rate was $583 per tonne (inc GST) with a $38 minimum. Check Council's current Fees and Charges before you go. See our Central Coast tip fees and wrapping guide.

Unwrapped asbestos found in a load means the whole load is charged at the asbestos rate. Kincumber does not take asbestos.
