    You’d surprised how many vans I’ve seen hauling stuff way worse-and I’m talking about regular Ford Econoline vans!

    It is a box, not a open hauler? The box is holding onto a gas that will bang on its own when released from pressure to open air. More than likely enough accumulated in the container hauling it. Yes it would have been a loud bang. Tho hardly worth getting the fire department involved. Open the doors and let it vent. Next time dont haul it in a truck that can seal it to the open air. Foolish if you ask me.

    Well it is hazmat so fire department intervention would’ve been inevitable at this point.
