Pricing by the Metre and by the Panel
Newcastle Asbestos Removals connects you with licensed removalists who quote fibro fence removal by length and condition, and every figure below sits within the bands on our asbestos removal cost guide. Fence removal is from $1,500, roughly $90 to $160 per metre, for a bonded asbestos cement fence in fair condition with reasonable access, always quoted on site.

Super Six fencing is bonded asbestos cement. In NSW, removing more than 10m² of bonded asbestos needs at least a SafeWork NSW Class B licence (SafeWork NSW). That is an area, not 10 metres of fence, so a full fence line in older streets around Wallsend, Mayfield or Charlestown is well past it. We connect you with SafeWork NSW licensed removalists for the work.
What Pushes a Fence Quote Up
Rear-lane or hand-carry access adds labour time because sheets must be carried out wrapped rather than loaded directly. Brittle, fire-damaged or storm-cracked sheeting has to be handled more slowly to avoid fibre release. Buried fragments in the soil line, asbestos capping, embedded posts, and removing concrete footings each add cost, as does a soil clearance where fragments have contaminated garden beds.
Included vs Excluded in a Typical Quote
A compliant quote includes wet-down removal, heavy-duty plastic double wrapping, transport and disposal at a facility licensed to take asbestos such as Summerhill Waste Management Centre, the disposal receipt and clearance. Loads over 100kg or more than 10m² of sheeting are tracked through the NSW EPA Integrated Waste Tracking Solution (NSW EPA). A Colorbond replacement fence is priced separately by a fencing contractor and usually arranged as a follow-on job.
Shared Fences and the Cheap-Quote Trap
If the fence sits on a shared boundary, talk to your neighbour early and get the cost split agreed in writing before work starts. One written quote covering the whole fence line keeps it simple.
Be wary of unlicensed cash quotes. Over 10m², the removalist must hold a SafeWork NSW licence and notify SafeWork NSW at least 5 calendar days before work starts (asbestos notifications). Correct asbestos disposal is part of the real price. Read more about the removal process on our asbestos fence removal page.
Why Short Fences Cost More Per Metre
Shorter fences can cost more per metre because setup, transport and clearance (from $300) are fixed costs. The quote covers the complete fence rather than multiplying a headline rate without checking access and condition.

Got more than one asbestos job? Book them together on the same visit and they can share one clearance inspection instead of paying for a separate one each time. Clearance is from $300, so a fence, shed roof and eaves on the same property add up to a real saving.
All prices include GST. Every removal quote sets out removal, wrapping, transport, disposal and clearance before work starts.
