In the transportation of dangerous goods, the sender is responsible for classifying, packaging and marking the transported goods. Therefore, compliance can also be very challenging.
Improper use of dangerous goods can lead to delays, extra costs, and even loss or confiscation of goods. Carriers usually refuse to dispose of incorrectly labeled dangerous goods, and national governments may even confiscate these dangerous goods or impose fines in some cases.
Working with experienced transport consultants can mitigate these risks.
The first step of packaging and transportation services is to ensure that all goods are correctly classified and labeled. We are committed to ensuring that all goods arrive on time within budget.
