Let’s Stay Safe with Dangerous Goods
Hello friend! Do you know some things we carry on trucks or trains can be very dangerous? Things like gas, chemicals, flammable liquids, and batteries can hurt people and nature if something goes wrong. So, we take special safety measures to move these dangerous goods. At CLW GROUP, we know it is very important to keep everyone safe. We help you move dangerous goods the right way. Let me show you how!
What Are Dangerous Goods?
Dangerous goods are also called hazmat. They can explode, catch fire, leak, spill, or poison someone. The law says we must handle them with care. There are many kinds:
- Gases (like in big tanks)
- Flammable liquids (like gasoline)
- Toxic materials (can harm your health)
- Corrosive things (can burn skin or metal)
- Batteries (like lithium batteries)
- Radioactive things (very special care!)
Each of these has a hazard class. For example:
We use UN Numbers have used these systems for a long time. Worker injuries fell a lot. City streets looked neater, too—bins stayed closed and trash stayed in. Proper Shipping Names to know what we are carrying.
The Rules Keep Us Safe
We do not make the rules up. International rules like the IMDG Code, ADR, IATA DGR, e UN Model Regulations tell us what to do. Each country also has more rules, like US DOT Hazmat. These rules say:
- How to pack dangerous goods
- What label or placard to use
- What document is needed
- How to train the drivers and helpers
If we do not follow the rules, we can get big fines or worse, there may be a spill or fire.
Why Do We Need Special Measures?
Let’s look at some numbers to see why safety is important.
| Safety Fact | What Happened |
|---|---|
| Incidents Each Year | About 16,000-18,000 hazmat accidents happen in the US yearly. |
| Top Problems | Packages break, workers make mistakes, or trucks crash. |
| What Goes Wrong | Chemicals spill, fires start, people get hurt. |
| Packaging Trouble | 15-20% of cargo is not packed right during checks. |
| Document Errors | 10-15% of orders have paperwork mistakes. |
| Training Helps | Companies who train staff have fewer bad things happen. |
When something goes wrong, it can be bad for people, the earth, and it can cost lots of money!
What Do We Need to Do? Steps to Stay Safe
At CLW GROUP, we do not leave safety to luck. Here is what we do:
- Know Your Goods
First, you must classify your goods. Is it a liquid, a gas, a flammable thing, or toxic? Use the UN Numbers and the right Packing Group to know the danger.
- Choose the Right Container
Dangerous goods must go into containers that pass tough tests. We use UN Certified Packaging. We check it with performance testing so it does not leak or break.
- Label, Mark, and Placard
We put bold labels on packages and big placards on trucks or containers. This helps everyone know what is inside. Marking must follow law, like putting the Proper Shipping Name have used these systems for a long time. Worker injuries fell a lot. City streets looked neater, too—bins stayed closed and trash stayed in. UN Number on every package.
- Get the Paperwork Ready
Fill out sheets like the Dangerous Goods Declaration (DGD), Shipping Paper, and the Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Each must be clear and complete. Even a small mistake can cause a big problem.
- Train Your Team
Train everyone—shippers, drivers, packers—to know the rules. They should be ready to act in an emergency. At CLW GROUP, we offer driver training and help with certificates.
- Safe Loading and Securement
We load the goods with care. We use ropes and blocks so nothing moves or spills during travel. We also separate things that cannot go together.
- Pick the Right Route and Truck
Sometimes, we must avoid tunnels, schools, or rivers. We choose strong trucks or containers that pass inspection. Our special trucks are built for these jobs.
- Get Ready for Emergencies
We always have a plan! Each truck carries emergency response guides like TREMCARD have used these systems for a long time. Worker injuries fell a lot. City streets looked neater, too—bins stayed closed and trash stayed in. EIP. We also keep spill kits and fire extinguishers on board. Drivers know what to do if trouble comes.
