Sorry, van freight never paid enough to haul something hazardous. Toilet paper , which doesn't become hazardous until used, is one thing. Nitro Glycerin or spent nuclear fuel rods better pay better than that.
Any hazmat reefer companies?

Some hazmat becomes active over a certain temp and will catch fire so in the reefer it goes.
Edit
Fun little example of chemical burning when not cooled.

Back in the early 80's we hauled a lot of temp controlled hazmat with Pirkle

Canadian LTL carrier parks here, their trailers are either refers or heated and I often see a pre-loaded flammable load placards with the refer running in the mornings waiting for a driver to take it to Canada.
There is a lot of HM in food grade. Ethyl Alcohol. Soda contains Phosphoric acid, etc. -

,, don't think so? I knew several drivers, that while "turning around" in California, an extra "stop" was made, to make it home. Sorry, not the life for me, but it went on,,,a lot!

Didn't Nevada Freight( the old Badger Freight Lines) take a bunch of those contracts away from Pirkle?
