AMSA: Raccolta gratuita di amianto e mercurio

Free home collection of small asbestos-cement items, planters, sills, small canopies, sheets, and anything containing mercury, such as old thermometers and barometers.

Right for you if

  • Old thermometers, and small asbestos pieces from a garden or balcony.
  • It has to cost nothing.
  • You cannot move it yourself. They come and collect.

Look elsewhere if

  • It is one small thing you could drop off yourself.
  • You need it gone today.
  • It is business waste.
  • It is more than a household quantity.

Where your things go

A named destination is worth more than a stated intention, and both are worth more than silence. This is the row to read before you book: if your item's row is empty, ask them on the phone and tell us what they say.

Not documented yet. This operator has not published what happens to each kind of item, and we have not been able to establish it from anywhere else. That is the gap, stated rather than hidden. If you ask them, tell us what they say.

Does it actually work

The part no company website tells you. Some of this comes from our checks, some from readers who used the service, and where nobody has told us yet, it says so.

What happens to it

  • Recycled
  • Disposed of

This describes the route the item takes, as the operator states it. We do not claim a recovery rate we have not seen evidence for.

What readers told us

Used them recently?

How long you waited, what they refused, whether anyone picked up the phone. Those are the three facts no website publishes and the ones the next reader needs.
