What matters for waste & environmental in Perth
Asking a WA removalist for a controlled waste tracking form is the wrong question. Regulation 3(5) of the Environmental Protection (Controlled Waste) Regulations 2004 excludes asbestos from the carrier licence and tracking regime, so there is no tracking form and no quantity threshold for asbestos transport in WA.

Section 49A of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 catches the person who causes or allows waste to be discharged or abandoned, not just the driver who tips it. The maximum is $62,500 for an individual and $125,000 for a body corporate, and it goes to court because dumping is not an on-the-spot offence in WA.

Emergency Spill Response in Perth, FAQs
What should I do first in a spill?
Make people safe and stop the source if it is safe to do so, then stop it reaching a drain, because once it is in stormwater the clean-up and the penalties multiply. Call a response contractor and notify the EPA if it is reportable in your state.
How quickly can a crew get to site?
Metropolitan response is usually within a couple of hours, and longer regionally. If your site handles bulk fuel or chemicals it is worth having a contractor on a standing arrangement rather than looking for one mid-incident.
