Shipping of Hazardous Materials
Warning! You may be in violation of Federal Law and create a public safety hazard if you ship dry ice, hazardous materials, or any other “Dangerous Goods” unless you have received specific training and the material is properly packaged and labeled.
The training and certification must be repeated every two years.
- "Dangerous Goods" include, but are not limited to, materials that are flammable, combustible, corrosive, reactive, oxidizing, toxic, radioactive, infectious, asphyxiating, elevated in temperature, or compressed, including aerosol cans. Dry ice is also regulated. If you are unsure whether your material is a "Dangerous Good" consult your MSDS, check with EH&S at 723-0448, and/or click here for a simplified flow chart.

- Important: Stanford personnel are not allowed to directly ship any radioactive materials. If you need to have radioactive materials shipped, contact Health Physics at 723-2201
