Disposing of PIR insulation

[Spinny]

Have a load of offcuts of PIR insulation to be disposed of - can I just bag it and take it to the local tip ?

(can't see any instructions on their website, and I know they get funny about plasterboard etc.)

A previous client put it on gumtree as free to collect, and someone took the lot.

It has other uses than just insulation. Modellers might well want small quantities.

I waited until I had a skip full of stuff, off cuts of insulation, plasterboard and general building stuff.

A few bags of small offcuts has no value. It will be buried or incinerated. 

Useful sizes of offcuts may be just what someone needs and save them a journey if free. But it would need photos. I'd be looking on 'marketplace'.

 

Plus you get a gold star for encouraging reuse.
