TDGA Shipping Form

BENEFITS

When you transport hazardous substances on the roads, rails or by water, it’s important that you include information that identifies the type of substances, who they belong to, etc. That’s why the federal Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act (TDGA) and Consolidated Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations (TDGA Regulations) require ‘dangerous goods’ to be transported with documents containing certain critical information.
