Chemical freight ranges from non-hazardous industrial chemicals shipped standard dry van or LTL, to hazmat-classified materials requiring a certified carrier, proper placarding, and DOT compliance. KeepShippin matches chemical freight to compliant carriers — flag hazmat class and UN number at quote time so we dispatch a carrier certified for your specific material.
Handling notes
- Hazmat class and UN number must be declared at quote time
- Non-hazardous industrial chemicals ship as standard dry van/LTL freight
- Hazmat freight carries an additional compliance fee for certified carrier matching
