    Who's saying it has to be placarded? Probably just a load with a small amount of HM product that does not exceed the threshold.

    That was my understanding as well cause placards not required below 1k nor endorsement so if it need placards it should need endorsement

    Until you know how much (lbs.) Hazmat there is.
    Not much you can do, just remind dispatch you don't have the endorsement for hazmat
