In addition to the standard paperwork required for shipping with Day & Ross, when you ship dangerous goods, there are three critical requirements that must be adhered to in order for the shipment to be transported legally, as well as to avoid potential delays and fines: Order of the description: The UN# must come first followed by the shipping name, class, and then packing group. Shipper’s declaration: The BOL must include a “shipper’s declaration” signed by the shipper indicating the shipment is compliant with Dangerous Goods regulations. “I hereby declare that the contents of this consignment are fully and accurately described above by the proper shipping name, are properly classified and packaged, have dangerous goods safety marks properly affixed or displayed on them, and are in all respects in proper condition for transport according to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations.” Labeling/Packaging: If dangerous goods are shipped as an “overpack” i.e. shrink-wrapped on a pallet, Day & Ross must be able to clearly see the Dangerous Goods labeling/markings through the shrink wrap. If it cannot, there must be labeling provided on top of the shrink-wrap that clearly indicates the contents of the freight. Can I create a shipment request from the U.S. to Canada?
