Posted By Dave Wilson Step 1 - From a legal standpoint If you are shipping DG you need to have access to a DGSA either in house or a Consultant. Step 2 - Do not do this until you have completed step 1 Step 3 - Follow DGSA Advice

Posted By Dave Wilson That was the point mate, needs to speak to a DGSA to sort

Posted By garyh Re the DGSa not being needed as it's a sea journey. Err, how does the package get from the works to the ship? Think about it. I am an ex DGSA, used to be competent in IMDG and IATA stuff, thank goodness out of it now. An absolute minefield. Take expert advice. The repercussions of messing up dangerous goods in transport can be huge - you don't have to spill anything or affect anyone. Just imagine the costs of a port / airport outage due to a panic about wrongly packaged / documented DGs...........
