Do you know what you are shipping?
A wide variety of items are classified as Dangerous Goods when transported by air. For example, lithium batteries and pressurized whipped cream cans are deemed hazardous because altitude and pressurization can affect their stability. Other items, such as ammunition, fuel, cleaners, paint, generators, and any motorized equipment, also fall under this category. For more detailed information, contact our team and ask before you ship! Read the full guide on Dangerous Goods Classification.
