Specialist handling, packing & shipping...

As logistics and worldwide shipping experts we can handle all your dangerous goods shipments (*excluding radioactive materials).  

Moving anything deemed ‘dangerous’ obviously requires specialist handling, packing and shipping, and ‘dangerous goods’ covers an extensive range of products and materials, ranging from seemingly everyday items such as alcoholic drinks, or items containing lithium batteries right through to corrosive chemicals or explosive materials.   Whatever you need moving, our expert team can take care of everything on your behalf.

What constitutes ‘dangerous goods’?

Dangerous goods are materials or items with hazardous properties which, present a potential hazard to human health and safety, infrastructure and their means of transport, if not properly handled & controlled.

Dangerous goods, or hazardous materials, could be pure chemicals, mixtures of substances, final manufactured products or any articles which could pose a risk to people, animals or the environment if not properly handled in use or in transit.

There are many pieces of UK legislation and regulation covering the transport of ‘dangerous goods’, many of which are specific to the mode of transport including road, rail, sea, air, inland waterways and tunnels.   At EBISS, we are qualified to use all methods of transportation for your goods.

There are 9  basic classifications for dangerous goods: Explosives, Gases, Flammable Liquids, Flammable Solids, Oxidising Substances, Toxic & Infectious Substances, Radioactives, Corrosives, Other Substances & Articles, including Lithium Batteries.  We can handle ALL of these classifications, with the exception of Radioactive materials.
