At Axil, we understand the complexities and responsibilities involved in transporting waste, especially when it comes to hazardous materials.
Our commitment to sustainability drives us to prioritise reusing, repurposing, and circularity. However, there are times when transfrontier shipment—cross-border transportation by road, rail, air, or sea—becomes necessary. Governed by the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste (TFS) regulations, these operations require meticulous planning and execution to ensure safety and compliance.
Why Proper Waste Transport Matters
Loading a shipping container for such transport is not a simple task. It involves careful consideration of numerous factors, from the condition and cleanliness of the container to the strategic distribution of weight and cargo. We adhere strictly to government guidelines, working closely with clients to ensure every shipment is handled with the utmost care and precision.
The correct loading of sea containers is crucial for safety during transport. This involves:
- Thorough Inspections: Checking the container’s condition, cleanliness, and locking mechanisms.
- Proper Weight Distribution: Ensuring stability by evenly distributing weight across the container floor, minimising the risk of accidents.
- Special Handling for Hazardous Goods: Placing dangerous goods (DG) packages closest to the door, with proper labelling, and ensuring air circulation and temperature control for specific classes.
