Asbestos Removal around Kembla Grange
Council's asbestos page adds that it is illegal to put asbestos in a household garbage bin or to dump it, and points to the NSW EPA's list for other facilities that accept household asbestos. The recycling centre is a NSW EPA Waste Less Recycle More project funded from the waste levy. This site could not read the centre's list of what it takes, so it says nothing about the centre beyond where it is and that asbestos cannot go to the depot it sits at.
The EPA's list for Illawarra and South Coast names a facility at Dunmore and notes that these facilities accept waste only in the shire. Whether that facility takes a load from a Kembla Grange address is not stated on any page this site read, so phone before you load. The disposal page sets out the phone-first steps, the packing and carrying rules and the load-reporting duty.

Permits and Wollongong City Council rules
Ask the provider where the load will go and who has confirmed the facility takes it, since the council's own depot is not an answer. This page names no approval for any address.
