Shipping Industrial Chemicals from Vancouver to Denver via Ground Freight

Transporting moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals Requires tight-closing drums or jerricans, foil or poly liners, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. It is important to clearly note “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and steer clear of open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.

For most regulated chemical products, UN-rated packaging Is required when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific UN packaging code and performance level are based on the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Always confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your industrial chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.

Because industrial chemicals can cause environmental damage if leaks occur, Additional cargo insurance is advisable. Always review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and Chemical goods are not excluded, and that coverage extends to contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.
