Permits Needed for a Roofing Contractor

If you plan to participate in an asbestos project, inspection, asbestos hazardous emergency response act management plan, abatement project design or asbestos air sampling in Missouri, you must receive an Asbestos Occupation Certification from the department.

The department requires notification of demolitions and abatement projects involving regulated structures at least 10 working days before crews begin a project. To learn more, visit the department's Asbestos website.

If you produce or store some form of hazardous waste as a result of your business processes, you may be required to register as a hazardous waste generator.

If you or your business plans to transport hazardous waste including waste oil, explosives, gases, flammable and combustible liquids, flammable solids, oxidizers and organic peroxides, poisons, radioactive materials, corrosives or infectious waste, you must obtain a Hazardous/ Infectious Waste Transporter License.

If your business will haul scrap tires to processing facilities, you are required to apply for a Scrap Tire Hauler Permit. You will not be required to obtain a permit if your activity falls into one of the following categories, provided you do not create pollution, a public nuisance or a health hazard.

1. A person who does not haul for monetary or non-monetary compensation or commercial profit.
2. A person hauling warranty tires or new defective tires to the retailer, wholesaler or manufacturer for adjustment credit or return.
3. A person hauling scrap tires that have been generated at their own business or residence, provided this transportation is done using their own employees and vehicles.
