Specialised Delivery Types

harazdous deliveriesEveryone knows that to get something delivered you use a courier service and Specialised Delivery Types but what do you do if the item you need to be delivered is on the dangerous goods list?

While a normal courier might not be able to help, specialised delivery services are available for items that require a little more logistical organisation.

Sending hazardous chemicals through the normal delivery service systems is prohibited, but genuine businesses need to transport there are specialist companies who can help. Government legislation is strict on what can be moved, where and how, and many delivery services may work with a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor.

Failure to use a properly experienced company could result in the seizure of goods and a fine or, worse, injuries due to negligence.

Delivery Specialised Types involve items that have to remain below a certain temperature e.g. Refrigerated transport services are readily available, mostly geared towards food delivery. Taking the time to ensure that the service and company you have chosen will correctly store and transport your shipment is vitally important for the success of your delivery.

Liquids are hit and miss among couriers, some will transport and some won’t. Sending liquid, alcohol or otherwise, via courier is really dependent on the courier service and their experience.

To transport liquids be very clear about what – if any – special requirements your liquids have to safely get from A to B, chat with the service providers you’ve chosen to check they can safely and successfully complete delivery before signing or paying.

Transportation of specialist items can take place via a number of different services and aren’t necessarily restricted to road, rail, sea or air. To help you find the best service provider, Delivery Quote Compare can offer free quotes for your business, all competitively priced.
