Ive looked and looked. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places......
Im suppose to pick up some 55 gallon drums of a hazardous material next week and I know Ive been to this shipper in Baltimore in the past and I think I ended up leaving because they just had the pallets sitting on the pallets(they weren't secured in anyway).
Someone help me refresh my memory when it comes to hauling these.
They have to be banded or shrink wrapped together on and to the pallet right?? And since its hazmat each individual drum must be labeled right?
What else am I missing??

You just covered it. But mmake sure they are secured from toward and rearward movement and you strap them after you throw some v birds acroos them
-
Also since they're 55 gallon drums......isnt it a rule that if hauling 55 gallon drums if the total is over 1000 gallons you have to have tanker?
Im probably wrong on this.... -
-
The tanker endorsement ruling wwas for totes. Now if drums were added I'm unaware of that
okiedokie Thanks this. -
I had tanker before I had hazmat, so I never give it a second thought. -
Wasn't that 2800 gals?
-
I'm forgot how that goes I haven't done ltl in 4yrs
-
I think they will be 4 to a pallet...... I know they each need one per(facing the outside). are you saying they need two?
It'll be tarped.... I know about the 4 on the trailer....(placards) -
For a guy with the name Hazmatguru you don't know much.
