UPS Expands Dangerous Goods Service to 51 New Destinations

Posted on 2/20/2018 by Roger Marks

UPS last week announced it will expand its International Special Commodities (ISC) program to allow healthcare providers, life sciences companies, and others to ship certain dangerous goods to 51 new countries and territories.

In response to rising demand for temperature-sensitive healthcare products and services around the globe, the delivery giant will now pick up and deliver packages of UN 3373 (Biological Substances, Category B, Diagnostic Specimen and Clinical Specimen) and UN1845 (Carbon Dioxide, solid or dry ice) to 100+ destinations.

Find convenient training solutions to ship infectious substances and dry ice by ground and air.

The list of 51 new destinations is available from UPS here.

These are the best classes I attend each year. I always take something away and implement improvements at my sites.

Having the tutorial buttons for additional information was extremely beneficial.

Sharon Ziemek

The online course was well thought out and organized, with good interaction between the student and the course.

The instructor does a great job at presenting material in an approachable way. I have been able to save my company about $30,000 in the last year with what I have learned from Lion!

Curtis Ahonen

EHS&S Manager

My experience with Lion training, both online and in the classroom, is that they are far better organized and provide a better sequential explanation of the material.

Robert Roose

Manager, Dangerous Goods Transportation

The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.

Steve Gall

Safety Leader

This is the best RCRA training I've experienced! I will be visiting Lion training again.

Principal Environmental Engineer

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.

Rachel Stewart

The price was reasonable, the time to complete the course was manageable, and the flexibility the online training allowed made it easy to complete.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
