can anybody tell me the difference in ADR between Hazfreight and hazpack ?

Hazpack was a very informal, half day course that could be conducted by your employer, but has been obsolete since about 1994. ADR is a far more formal and structured training course (longer too) that must be done by an approved training provider and ends with multi-choice examinations.

Did my 1st ADR…£400.

5 years on 2nd ADR. £600.

The difference, notification chem boards… fish out of water & dead tree…
And the top line of a chem board had gone from letters and numbers to just numbers.

A bargain for that what made me lighter in the wallet… Oh *****n joy

It’s like the DPC. A rip off.

Not quite true - both still in use. Letters and numbers, eg: 3YE is our own UK carriage of dangerous goods emergency action code. For use only with domestic movements.

The just numbers, eg: 336 (highly flammable and toxic) is ADR regulation to be used if any part of the journey crosses into Europe.
