Dangerous goods transportation

International transport group Transit arranges dangerous goods transportation, including DG-classified products and lithium batteries. Before launching the route, we verify the cargo's characteristics, packaging requirements, and DGR/MSDS documents, and then build the transportation and handling scheme.

Why dangerous goods require a dedicated approach

For such shipments, correct cargo identification, a complete set of documents, and consistent requirements at every transport and terminal stage are critical.

  1. Cargo characteristics verification

    We clarify the composition, packaging, hazard class, and special restrictions that affect the choice of route and equipment.

  2. Documents and packaging requirements

    We work with DGR/MSDS and factor in the packaging requirements so they are built into the operational scheme before dispatch.

  3. A route built around restrictions

    We select the chain of transportation, terminal handling, and onward delivery to match the parameters of the specific shipment.

  4. Unified coordination

    We align the actions of carriers, terminals, the warehouse, and the parties of a foreign trade shipment within a single loop.

What cargo we transport

Feasibility of transportation is determined by the data on the specific product and its documentation.

Cargo categories and examples
CategoryProduct examples
Chemical productsGoods that require verification of the hazard class, packaging, and accompanying documentation
Lithium batteriesBatteries and devices with lithium cells, provided the required information and documents are available
Auto partsComponents that may fall under the DG category and require special approvals
Industrial goodsProducts with special packaging, labeling, or documentation requirements

Types of transportation

We build the transportation scheme after verifying the cargo, packaging, and the availability of a suitable transport solution on the chosen route.

Container transportation

Suitable for shipments that can be moved in a container setup, provided the packaging and documentation requirements are met.

FCL ยท multimodal scheme

Road leg

Used for the first or last mile, as well as on domestic Russian routes as part of an agreed scheme.

Delivery to the warehouse

Rail leg

Applied on multimodal and domestic Russian routes where the cargo and document parameters allow this solution.

Linked with terminals

Transportation geography

The route and the parties involved are selected after verifying the product range and the requirements applicable to the specific shipment.

Import shipments

Arranging the route from the supplier to the consignee, with document requirement checks and cargo handovers between stages.

Domestic Russian delivery

Road, rail, and multimodal schemes for delivery between terminals, warehouses, and consignee facilities.

Export shipments

Preparing the cargo and transport scheme with the cargo's characteristics and the route's requirements in mind.

Cases we handle

The working scheme depends on the hazard class, the type of packaging, and the documentation; we define it before booking the transportation.

Lithium battery shipment

We verify the product information and documents, then agree on the applicable transportation scheme and handovers between stages.

Chemical products

We clarify the hazard class, packaging requirements, and route restrictions, and then shape the transport solution.

Import shipment delivered to the warehouse

We arrange the international leg, terminal handling, customs support, and delivery to the consignee as one package.

Stages of arranging transportation

  1. We collect product information

    We request a description, packaging details, hazard class, and DGR/MSDS documents if available.

  2. We check whether the scheme applies

    We assess the requirements for packaging, equipment, the route, and cargo handover operations.

  3. We agree on the route

    We determine the sequence of transport and terminal stages.

  4. We prepare the operation

    We coordinate the necessary documents, transport, and the agreed actions of the parties involved.

  5. We support the transportation

    We monitor progress through the agreed stages and keep you updated on statuses.

  6. We arrange release

    We hand the cargo over to the next stage or deliver it to the agreed destination point.

FAQ

The set of documents depends on the specific product range and route. To validate the scheme, we request a cargo description, hazard class information, packaging details, and DGR/MSDS documents where applicable.
