Is asbestos popcorn ceiling waste from a Kitchener home thrown out with regular garbage?
No. Asbestos-containing popcorn ceiling debris should never go in household garbage, curbside pickup, or a regular bin in Kitchener. It must be kept wet, sealed in heavy-duty labelled asbestos bags, and delivered to a facility licensed to accept it. Homeowners who scrape it themselves often have no legal place to drop it off. A professional crew handles the bagging, transport, and disposal as part of the job. Testing first costs $300-$500, which tells you whether special handling applies.
