Classified.
Documented.
Moved correctly.
Dangerous goods require specialist knowledge — of classification, documentation, packaging requirements, mode-specific rules, and regulatory change. Getting it wrong is costly: cargo refused, shipments delayed, fines, or worse.
Freight Direct handles DG shipments across all major classes, by air and sea, with trained staff and correct documentation every time. We classify, document, pack (or verify packing), and move your dangerous goods compliantly.

Multimodal DG
Cargo that moves by sea, air, and road each has different DG rules. We manage the compliance transition across modes — you don't need to.
Lithium Battery Expertise
Batteries in equipment, batteries packed with equipment, standalone battery shipments — each has specific IATA and IMDG requirements. We know them all.
