asbestos clean-up

Ig might be too late for you but I would use clean-up as it is a clearing of the site, eliminating any signs of asbsestos.
Note from asker:
I agree with clean-up too and with Russell Jones' note but you never know what they're intending to do with it afterwards
Peer comment(s):
agree Russell Jones : Yes; reclamation implies re-use of something worth keeping.
