Port Hedland Asbestos Removal & Hazardous Material Management
Class A/B licensed crews on your site within 24–48 h – trusted by homeowners, industry and the world’s busiest iron‑ore port.

Why Port Hedland Faces a Unique Asbestos Risk
From 1960s fibro cottages in South Hedland to ageing ore‑sheds in Wedgefield, asbestos is woven into Port Hedland’s rapid mining‑boom history. The town’s famous red dust coats every surface, while Category 5 cyclones can shred roof sheeting overnight. When asbestos is disturbed in these harsh conditions, fibres travel fast—right across Kariyarra country and into neighbourhoods, workshops and the port itself.
- 500 million t of iron ore moves through the port each year—heavy vibration & dust loads accelerate material decay.
- Cyclone Ilona, 1988 ripped thousands of square metres of ACM roofing—legacy fragments are still unearthed today.
- South Hedland Waste Facility on North Circular Rd is the only site licensed to accept asbestos locally.
Field Highlight: 72‑Hour Car‑Dumper Shutdown
During an early-morning shutdown at an iron-ore processing plant, our crew excavated legacy asbestos-contaminated soil that had been uncovered alongside a new retaining wall. As each section was removed, the material was kept damp, double-wrapped in 200 µm plastic and immediately sealed into “DANGER — ASBESTOS”–labelled bundles


temporary exclusion fence and negative-pressure enclosure (not in frame) isolated the area from active plant traffic while the excavator loaded the secure packages into lined skips for controlled-waste transport to the licensed Newman Waste Management Facility.
