What ADR-classified cargo we handle

Our ADR-licensed fleet and trained personnel are authorised to transport the following dangerous goods classes:

• Class 2: Gases – compressed, liquefied, and dissolved gases (acetylene, propane, chlorine, etc.).
• Class 3: Flammable liquids – petrol, diesel additives, solvents, paint thinners, adhesives.
• Class 4: Flammable solids – phosphorus, charcoal, metal powders, organic peroxides (subdivisions 4.1, 4.2, 4.3).
• Class 5: Oxidising substances – peroxides, chlorates, permanganates, bleach.
• Class 6: Toxic and infectious substances – pesticides, disinfectants, biological samples (in accordance with IATA/IMDG for ground transport).
• Class 8: Corrosive substances – acids, alkalis, battery fluid, cleaning chemicals.
• Class 9: Miscellaneous hazardous goods – including UN3480/UN3481 lithium batteries, dry ice, magnetised material, and other regulated items.

Classes we do not transport: Class 1 (explosives) and Class 7 (radioactive material). For radioactive freight, consult our national team; for explosives, we recommend specialist pyrotechnics couriers.

Every shipment is accompanied by completed tremcards, UN classification documentation, orange hazard plates, and driver-familiarisation briefings. POD signatures and chain-of-custody records are maintained throughout transit.

Walsall industrial ecosystem

Walsall hosts a diverse industrial base that drives consistent hazardous goods demand across the West Midlands. According to current UK business registry data, the city is home to 12,103 registered companies, including:

• 760 logistics and transport operators – creating a competitive but collaborative ecosystem for last-mile dangerous goods delivery.
• 730 pharmaceutical and medical firms – many requiring cold-chain and Class 6 (biological/toxic) courier services for clinical samples, test reagents, and pharmaceutical intermediates.
• 687 manufacturing companies – producing chemicals, coatings, adhesives, metal finishing products, and components that fall under ADR classification.
• 450 technology firms – increasingly shipping lithium battery modules (UN3480/UN3481) and electronic components with hazardous material declarations.

This industrial concentration means T&C Logistics encounters a steady volume of Class 3, 4, 5, and 8 shipments destined for Walsall's factories, R&D centres, and distribution hubs. Our local knowledge and round-the-clock availability ensure your urgent hazardous goods consignments move efficiently through this busy corridor.

"Walsall's manufacturing base depends on reliable, fully compliant ADR logistics. We've built our fleet and driver roster specifically to serve this ecosystem – and the 730 pharma firms here mean we're moving everything from solvent shipments to biological samples every week." —Taras, Founder, T&C Logistics

ADR compliance and driver training

Every T&C Logistics driver assigned to a hazardous goods shipment holds a current ADR (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) licence. This qualification requires formal training and periodic reassessment, covering:

• Classification of dangerous goods (Classes 1–9).
• Use of tremcards (transport emergency cards) and MSDS documentation.
• Packaging, marking, and labelling standards (including orange hazard plates and UN numbers).
• Vehicle equipment (fire extinguishers, spill kits, warning triangles).
• Emergency procedures and hazard communication protocols.
• TDG (Transport of Dangerous Goods) regulations specific to UK road routes.

All shipments are dispatched with NDA-briefed personnel and a signed chain-of-custody form. Drivers carry printed tremcards for each hazard class aboard the vehicle. We maintain records of vehicle inspections, driver certifications, and incident logs in accordance with UK regulatory requirements. Upon delivery, a secure POD (proof of delivery) confirms receipt and condition of cargo.
