Carriage of Dangerous Goods<\/strong><\/p>\n

Archive Business Centre Limited is not a Licensed ADR Dangerous Goods carrier and as such is only permitted to carry Dangerous Goods that are classed as ‘Limited Quantities’ – ‘Excepted Quantities’ or those that are otherwise officially ‘exempt’ as described by current legislation. Archive Business Centre Limited may occasionally carry other types of Dangerous Goods and for further advice please contact us directly on traffic@abc-ltd.net<\/a> before shipping. The sender or ‘shipper’ of the goods must notify us in advance when sending Dangerous Goods in ‘Limited Quantities’. This is done via our online booking software, selecting Limited Quantities\u2019 (LQ) option under the Tariff section.<\/p>\n

The sender or ‘shipper’ of the goods is responsible for correctly identifying, packaging, marking and labelling all consignments of Dangerous Goods as required by regulations. Failure to do so may constitute a statutory offence.<\/p>\n

Package marking and labelling \u2013 The new style Limited Quantity package mark<\/p>\n

The latest Regulations have introduced a new style Limited Quantity mark for display on packages. For UK Mainland road transport under ADR 2011 requirements this mark may be used from now and becomes fully mandatory from 30th June 2015. Please note: – the mark has a minimum size of 100mm X 100mm and the UN number is no longer displayed, although certain items may require text displayed elsewhere on the package \u2013 e.g. ‘UN1950 AEROSOLS’.<\/p>\n
