HAZMAT PRODUCTS
Hazmat is considered dangerous substances that could pollute the air, spill and damage other items or explode. But most of these items (e.g. Lithium, liquid, corrosives etc) are shipped by EVD where they are grouped (accordingly) and shipped, after being carefully secured and packaged, on particular days only. You would need to indicate if your items are hazmat and process such for shipping.
