What is Required When Shipping HAZMAT?

What is Considered Hazardous Material?

Hazardous material is considered hazardous if it poses a health hazard or physical hazard to humans and the environment.



In most instances, Service Transport is equipped to ship large amounts of hazardous materials like lithium batteries, medications, liquid nitrogen, and dry ice. These types of materials are lower on the hazard level list according to the DOT.
