A Regulatory Year in Review

We took a look back at some of our Help Center topics that you were most eager to learn about and put together a top 5 list of articles for 2022 we thought you might want to read or revisit:

1. Is a Placard Required?

Correctly using placards can be a little tricky. In this article, we clear up confusion surrounding some of the variables that affect their placement and exceptions to their use.

2. Segregating Dangerous Goods under the IMDG Code 

Dangerous goods product segregation to remain compliant of IMDG code is one of the most common inquiries we receive. In this article, we break down the basics, how to read a segregation table, and what to do next to determine if your products need to be segregated based on the Dangerous Goods list.

3. What to Do if Your Lithium Battery Catches Fire

Lithium batteries are used in a wide variety of devices, from personal tech and handhelds to electric bicycles, lawn and garden equipment, and more. Here’s an article that covers what to do if a lithium battery catches fire, and how to transport them safely to avoid fines, delays, and other hazards.

4. What Are Excepted Quantities?

One of the most common exemptions used when shipping dangerous goods in smaller amounts is Excepted Quantities. In this article, we outline the basics and when the excepted quantities exemption can be applied.

5. Shipping Limited Quantities by Ground vs Air, What’s the Difference?

Using exceptions is one way to “bend the rules” to work for you when it comes to shipping dangerous goods. One exception that’s particularly useful is shipping in limited quantities. Want to know how to leverage this useful exemption? Take a look at our article on how to ship limited quantities by ground and air.
