[QUOTE="kurra, post: 332245, member: 9971"] Hi wishful, your local tip will take asbestos, especially a very small amount like that. Just put it in two zip lock bags and let them know you will be bringing it to be disposed of. You can look up online which tips will take it. The local tips around my area will take it for a [u]very[/u] small fee, especially the amount you have. I work at the local high school and the Department have issued warnings about our old mineral kits and asking us to double bag any that contain serpentine, crocadilite, even talc as they are quite often found in the same area. I am going through our rock samples at the moment seeing if there is nothing tucked away that we shouldn't have. It must have been a horrible surprise to find that included with your samples. The company should have taken every step to recover and dispose of the asbestos for you, k. [/QUOTE]
