New Video Series: Hazmat Essentials for New Shippers

Posted on 2/20/2024 by Lion Technology Inc.

There's a lot to know when you ship hazardous materials! That's why we created a video series for new hazmat shippers, Hazmat Shipping Essentials. This series explores fundamentals that all shippers need a grasp on to comply with US and international regulations—including training requirements, hazmat classification, and much more.

Check out video #1 below. Then, watch the follow up—"The 9 Hazard Classes"—here. Next up, a video that breaks down the "Miscellaneous" Hazard Class (Class 9) is already on the way.
