Garage Panic!

[bensewell]

Long story but having twins is eating my mancave space so my garage will be getting converted into a room and I'm making frankengarage / shed thing in the back garden out of an old concrete pebble dash effect sectional garage.
This weekend me and the brother in law dismantled it and the panels are now in my back garden.
We were careful taking the roof off but I’m having bad thoughts that we’ve shifted a lot of asbestos sheets…
One of my mates says it’s not and its concrete fibre board and not to worry about it.
We had masks on to take it down but to get it in the back of my people carrier (VW Sharan we broke it up into pieces without masks on. I chucked a big damp proof membrane sheet in the back of the car then headed to the tip.
Bloke said we couldn’t tip it unless it was pre-booked in by the council.
The sheets themselves had some writing on the underside of it and looked pretty OK.
I’m worried that dust will be everywhere in the car and maybe we’ve breathed some in.
Am I panicking over nothing?
Some pictures below folks:

roofer said:

Very likely to be cement with a chrysotile content. Looking at the underside, the pattern would indicate they are not, but without testing, its a guessing game.

Cheers for that. Best get my car cleaned out properly then

Well suppose time will tell its done now. Made a note of it in my calendar and will be off to the docs if anything untoward happens.

If I make it to 75 and then start being knackered at least I've had a good innings...

Time will tell. Should I go to the doctors for a checkup anytime soon ??

Make sure yiy double bag them & take to the tip in stages they'll be OK

Wife's muma bloke came round & said it was white asbestos i didn't think so phoned a man up. He said he didn't think so but could shift it for £80. Going to clean car then flog it coz wife has gone nut's. Working out an expensive free garage

Trying to convince a worried Mrs with two young un's is hard we will wait n see...

[bensewell]

Probably part ex main dealer will scrap it.

Its in 'shed' territory... 02 reg 175k

Rang HSE & they said use wet rags on the dust that can be seen or a class H hoover.

Think I'll wipe round it all before giving it to a valeter to spruce up.

All the seats are in the garage so they weren't affected.

Hopefully this is a bit more positive...

What do we think

[bensewell]

Let's have an asbestos 'off'

I'm sorted now.

In my mind I'm after an different car now.

Probably best all-round summary of the situation.

I've made my mind up.

Time for a car swap... Or hoping an ollortune moment comes for a asbestos looking car thief

I've gone round the boot with a damp cloth, next action is a full valet this weekend.

Then its decision time.
