Well, that works for every cardboard package except UN-rated packaging. It\u2019s an absolute <\/span><b>DO NOT<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> when using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/packaging\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UN-rated fibreboard box<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I recently had a client contact me to get some help with which package he can use to ship out lithium-ion batteries via air transport. The batteries were classified as Section 1A, so it would need to go in UN-rated packaging. Based on the number of batteries and net weight he was shipping, I suggested using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product\/pk-15spa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ICC&#8217;s PK-15SPA packages<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. He also purchased all the components that would also go with the package. A copy of the manufacturer\u2019s packing instructions did accompany the boxes.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has taken the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/training-courses\/air\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">air DG training<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with us, but he rarely ships DG, so I walked him through the steps to prepare the shipment and also told him to send me a picture of the marks\/labels on the package so that I can review it for him along with the shipper\u2019s declaration before he sends it to the airline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He emailed me some pictures and asked if it\u2019s good to go. Well, it was not. He has cut the box down, which is a big \u201cno-no.\u201d I called him and explained to him that besides taping the box with the correct <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/packaging\/packaging-accessories\/packing-tape-shipping-envelopes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tape<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, he can\u2019t do anything to that box. I advised him UN packaging are tested to meet a standard, and altering them in any way makes these packaging no longer compliant. I advised him to use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product\/ab-peabd01\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">packing peanuts to fill the vacant space<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Thankfully out of the five boxes he needed to send, he had just prepared one box.\u00a0 I told him to remove the DG marks\/labels and that he can still use the box to ship our non-DG material.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His second set of pictures that he emailed to me was much better. I also helped him correct his shipper\u2019s declaration. He jokingly said if the shipment gets rejected, it would be my fault. I told him, fine, I will accept that, but only for DG issues. Customs is his problem with a smiley face emoji.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He sent me an email two days later to tell me the shipment went through fine. I said to him, \u201cand you doubted me.\u201d He came back with \u201cnever\u201d with a big smiley face emoji.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let us know if we can help you with your shipment.
