Dangerous goods and dedicated ADR enquiries
Start with the UN number, classification and load details for packaged dangerous goods.
ADR Carriers Ltd · UK and European road transport
ADR transport for dangerous goods
Specialist road transport starts with understanding the load. Tell us what you need to move, where it is going and when it needs to arrive, so we can assess the right arrangement.
What do you need to transport?
Use the service guidance to prepare your enquiry. Acceptance depends on the specific goods, packaging, quantity, route and available transport arrangements.
Lithium and EV batteries
Explain the battery chemistry, configuration, condition and packaging, including UN3480 or UN3481 where applicable.
Class 1 explosives
Provide the division, compatibility group and net explosive quantity for an explosives or fireworks enquiry.
Class 7 radioactive material
Supply the material and package information so the team can assess the movement against its operating scope.
UK, Europe, Ireland and Northern Ireland enquiries
Cross-border dangerous goods transport needs the road route, any ferry leg and customs responsibilities considered together. Share the exact origin, destination and delivery window before a route is agreed.
Prepare a useful transport enquiry
- Collection and delivery addresses, date and required time window.
- UN number, proper shipping name, class or division and packing group where applicable.
- Package count and type, dimensions, quantity and gross weight.
- Special conditions, loading arrangements and available supporting documents.
You can start an enquiry before every detail is available. Explain what is missing; the team will need to confirm the relevant information before accepting a booking.
