BATSI:
I am sorry to ask a question with my first post but I am looking for some help.
I have an idea to sell specialist paint in aerosols but I am finding that most parcel carriers have aerosols on the top of their prohibited materials list. Are there any parcel delivery companies that will regularly carry single well packaged aerosols??
Hi BATSI,
One of my customers regularly sends quite a variety of dangerous goods (including different types of aerosols) by parcel carrier, but any reputable parcel carrier will require proper dangerous goods paperwork/procedures and (possibly) for you to have a DGSA. That’s usually a company requirement as best practice, rather than it being an actual written law.
The carrier that I have in mind is FedEx, I’ve already dealt with one of their DGSAs on behalf of my customer, so I know the above is true.
You’ve mentioned aerosols containing paint, so for now I can only tell you that they can probably be carried as Limited Quantities, which is quite easy to achieve and opens up the possibility of you using other carriers, such as DHL.
