Packaging
Suitable packaging helps contain the goods and protect them throughout the journey.
Safety starts before collection
ADR is the agreement governing the international carriage of dangerous goods by road. It sets safety requirements for hazardous materials to help protect people, property and the environment.
Moving dangerous goods is not simply a standard courier booking. The goods, packaging, paperwork and transport arrangements all need to be appropriate for the consignment.
Suitable packaging helps contain the goods and protect them throughout the journey.
Correct hazard labels and markings identify the risks associated with the consignment.
The transport setup must meet the requirements that apply to the load being carried.
ADR also sets out training and qualification requirements relevant to dangerous goods transport.
Your goods, not a shared load
Our hazardous goods courier service supports businesses moving smaller loads as well as larger palletised shipments. Dedicated vehicles mean your consignment is not co-loaded with other customers’ goods.
Discuss the contents and value of your shipment when arranging transport, so the applicable cover can be confirmed.
Ask about same-day and next-day options. ADR suitability and availability need to be confirmed before collection.
A clearer brief, a better planned journey
Having these details ready helps us assess your shipment and discuss the right transport arrangements.
Provide the product description, UN number, hazard class and packing group where applicable. Share the safety data sheet if available.
Include quantities, package or pallet count, dimensions and weight. Explain how the goods are packaged and any loading requirements.
Share both postcodes, your preferred collection time and delivery deadline, along with any site access restrictions.

Acceptance needs to be confirmed for each consignment. Send the classification, quantity and packaging details before booking. Do not assume a material is suitable for transport simply because it is a small load.
They can do. Some exemptions depend on the substance, quantity and packaging, but a small package is not automatically exempt. Confirm the classification and applicable requirements with your supplier or dangerous goods adviser.
No. Purple B Logistics operates dedicated vehicles with no co-loading, so your consignment is not combined with other customers’ deliveries.
