Shipping Chemical Goods from Laredo to St. Louis via Ground Freight

Shipping moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals demands Sealed primary containers, foil or poly liners, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks.

Always confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your industrial chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.
