Asbestos and pollutant surveys in the canton of Uri
In Uri, cantonal documentation distinguishes the volume of deconstruction materials from total construction waste. This distinction matters when choosing the procedure and documents needed.
We work throughout Switzerland. State your preferred language for discussions and the report when enquiring.
Describe my projectDeclaration or specialist investigation
For alteration or deconstruction with suspected pollution, the affected elements must be examined. The cantonal page provides for a declaration by a person with construction expertise below 200 m³ of deconstruction materials, and investigation by a specialist surveyor above 200 m³. The declaration template documents suspect materials and the next steps.
The concept covers all waste
Disposal information is required when pollutant investigation is needed or total construction waste exceeds 200 m³. This second volume includes streams beyond deconstruction materials alone.
Preparing an enquiry in Uri
- Separate deconstruction estimates from other waste.
- Identify suspect materials and available results.
- Attach plans and any declaration prepared by your representative.
