HAZARDOUS MATERIALS (HAZMAT) TRANSPORTATION

Why hazard a guess when shipping hazardous materials?  While many general commodity carriers have moved away from hauling hazmat for insurance and regulatory reasons, as Landstar Agents, we move toward it. 

Shipping hazardous materials adds extra layers of complexity. You can count of us for the highest committment to safety at every step, stringent adherence to regulations and compliance, and a stellar track record to ensure your shipment arrives on-time and damage free.

Whether you ship IBC totes of chemicals, drums of flammable solids, peroxides, or even explosives, we know the steps to take to transport your hazardous goods in the safest possible way.
