Hauling drums of hazmat on flatbed......

Have to reread it but I believe it was 119 ibc and 1000 aggregated.

 

To be safe, I would just consider it "either/or". If it meets one of those criteria, tanker endorsement.

 

Well not wanting the load is different then. 4 barrels to a pallet, each one with a diamond on it for the hazmat, shrink wrapped and strapped on every one. Constantly checking them. Straps will need a bunch of V or T under them to stay tight without hurting the barrels.

If you do not want this load, call your driver manager or advocate and talk to that person, make it clear your feelings regarding this load and some other lucky driver should deal with it. Things have changed since my time and they should take you off this load if you don't want to or simply wont do it. I am hoping the people in your company has some respect for you enough to understand that you do not want this load and give it to another driver.

These loads to me are like someone in the family asking to change a baby. What do we do with a task that no one really wants to do with the poo? lol. It's difficult. But bottom line, if you don't want a load for not wanting it, then don't do it. Bad things sometimes happen to people who are forcing themselves to do something they do not want to do.

 

I'm assuming 119 per container also. Not sure on the both criteria. Or either criteria.

 

No. It has to be both 119 gallon containers and the 1000 gallon containers. Otherwise you would need a tank endorsement to haul cans of beer and soda and such.
