Hello everyone,
Based on my online research and conversations with demolition companies, I am still not really sure: Is it allowed to remove asbestos roofing tiles yourself and dispose of them properly? Of course, compliance with safety regulations (mask, asbestos bags, protective suit) is a prerequisite.
Does anyone here have experience with this?

It will probably depend on whether he can prove that you did not work according to professional standards. Visual evidence is easy to obtain nowadays, since it feels like everyone carries a smartphone.
Overall, it likely depends on how lenient the neighbors are. In our case, no one complained about dust (apart from the asbestos issue), noise, etc. Others have neighbors who seem to be constantly watching with cameras, looking for violations.

What building materials were these? Did you list them individually on Ebay Classifieds?Sheet metal roofing, heating system, radiators, polystyrene insulation. There was also interest in windows and doors, but my sons used those for a shed. Listed them gradually, as they became available.B
BauFamily14 Sep 2021 10:23Let’s keep it brief; I called the city office: The woman on the phone didn’t know at first and had to ask around, with the result being: It is recommended to hire a company for this, but I am allowed to remove it myself as long as it is done professionally.
We also disposed of a corrugated asbestos roof ourselves, measuring 10 x 10 m (33 x 33 ft).
At the disposal site, we collected transport packaging, placed the individual bags on the trailer, carefully lifted the panels down, and put them into the bags.
Nothing was thrown down, cut, or separated. We used dust masks, gloves, and rain jackets, which were discarded afterwards. Cost in 2018 was 600€.

To put it another way: was it a huge effort for you? You probably went back and forth between the landfill and the construction site several times? I also have a standard car trailer that I planned to use for transporting the bags.
