We're renovating a house in Haringey and in the process of surveying we discovered asbestos in a few places. We booked with what seemed like a reputable nationwide removal company (Macaw's) only to be let down on three separate occasions by no-shows and zero help from the company. Looking at all other quotes available everything was incredibly expensive for what was quote a small bit of removal of a soffit and 5m2 of floor tiles.
I found a reddit post about a man called Jamie so I managed to get him in and he was absolutely brilliant. Helpful, cheery, and took it on the chin when the job turned out a bit more complicated than expected. He did everything in a few hours but took his time with safety precautions like sealing the place up, cleaning thoroughly after himself, and the use of PPE. When the number of bags required over doubled because of the complication he also dropped by the next day with more bags at no extra charge.
I know that word-of-mouth can be the best method of promotion, and I really want to help him out since he's a sole trader outfit rather than a large company that has the budget to advertise online. Hire him; he's a lovely man who will get all the asbestos out of your home,

It is worth people knowing that you can arrange for small amounts of Asbestos to be collected free by the CIty of London from domestic premises. They do this on behalf of almost all London Boroughs. The amount that you describe sounds like it would have been within their acceptable quantities...
There's a form here:
