Identifying hazmat vs. non-hazmat on a shipping paper
  • When listing hazmat and non-hazmat on the same shipping papers, the hazmat must be highlighted by order of listing, color, or a check box to indicate which of the materials are hazardous.

Hazardous materials are required to be indicated on shipping papers in one of three ways when non-hazardous materials are also listed.

1.The hazardous materials must be listed first, before any non-hazardous materials
2.The hazardous materials must be entered in a color that clearly contrasts with non-hazardous materials entries (hazardous materials entries may be highlighted only on reproductions of the shipping paper)
3.The hazardous materials must be identified with an “X” in a column captioned “HM” placed before the basic shipping description
