What Are ADR & Hazardous Goods?

ADR stands for the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road. It is a regulatory framework that governs the transportation of hazardous materials across Europe. Hazardous goods can include a wide range of substances, such as chemicals, gases, explosives, flammable liquids, radioactive materials, and biological agents. These materials pose potential risks to health, safety, and the environment if not handled properly, making compliance with ADR regulations essential.

At ACS Sameday, we are fully compliant with ADR regulations, ensuring that your hazardous goods are transported safely and legally. Our service includes the provision of specialised vehicles, trained drivers, and all necessary safety documentation.
