HazMat Transport/Shipping

 

Transporting and shipping hazardous materials can be dangerous, but both activities can be done safely – much of it by the researchers themselves. Each of the items below is subject to some transportation or shipping restrictions. 

Click on the applicable hazardous material icon below to learn how you can safely (and legally) transport that hazardous material and to learn what laboratory resources are available to you for your shipping needs.

Still not sure what to do?  Contact the knowledgeable and helpful staff at Shipping (x5084, x4388 or shipping@lbl.gov) and ask for help.
