Understanding the requirements
What is ADR?
ADR is the agreement governing the international carriage of dangerous goods by road. Its requirements help protect people, property and the environment when hazardous materials are transported.
For businesses moving dangerous goods, the relevant rules cover packaging, labelling, transport documentation, vehicle standards and driver qualifications.
Not sure how your goods are classified? Check with the supplier and share the relevant safety data sheet when enquiring. Do not assume that a small quantity can travel as ordinary freight.

Dangerous goods delivery questions
Every hazardous consignment needs its own assessment. Speak to us before arranging collection if anything about the load is uncertain.
Can you transport any type of dangerous goods?
Acceptance depends on the specific goods, classification, quantity and transport requirements. Send the details before booking so we can confirm suitability. Do not assume that every hazard class or load is accepted.
Do small loads still need ADR checks?
Yes, the requirements must still be checked. Some provisions depend on quantities and packaging, but a small load is not automatically exempt. Accurate classification is the starting point.
How should the goods be prepared?
Goods need packaging, marking, labelling and documentation appropriate to their classification. Check the requirements with your supplier or dangerous goods adviser, and discuss preparation with us before collection.
Is medical delivery the same as ADR transport?
Not necessarily. Whether ADR applies depends on the contents and classification, not simply the sector. See our medical courier service and tell us exactly what needs transporting.
