Are There Laws for Dangerous Goods?
When mishandled, dangerous goods can endanger people and the environment. Laws ensure the safe handling and transportation of these goods, preventing damage to people and the environment. Penalties follow for those who do not follow the rules.
At FAA Group, we go above and beyond to abide by the conditions set out as per the Australian Dangerous Goods Code. Dangerous goods refer to articles or substances with hazardous properties which can, if handled incorrectly:
- Burn
- Asphyxiate
- Pollute the environment
- Explode or make an explosive mixture
- Become unstable if mixed with other chemicals or products
- Eat metal or skin
Can Freight Assist Australia Ship Hazardous Goods?
Yes, we are pleased to offer hazardous goods transportation to Perth and Australian businesses. However, the FAA Group requires a number of things to transport dangerous goods legally. The shipper must supply at least the following details about the dangerous goods:
- Name
- UN number
- Class and subsidiary risk
- Number and type of packages sent
- Quantity of goods being sent
Any other information that gives insight into the type of product inside is welcome. We recommend you add any extra information to the description. All information is to be laid out on a shipping document along with the emergency procedures guide. These can be obtained from Standards Australia or the manufacturer of the product.
Please note: While some restrictions exist for transporting dangerous and hazardous materials, we can move classes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 9.
What Is FAA Group’s Fuel Levy Surcharge?
The below information relating to our fuel levy surcharge is added to all freight rates.
Fuel Levy = ((((CF/1.1)-CR)-BF)/BF) *0.32
CF = current fuel (national average diesel price as published by AIP for each week ending of the previous month divided by the number of weeks)
CR = diesel fuel current rebate
BF = base fuel (when FAA started applying fuel levy; this is a net value, ex rebate and GST)
How Are Charges for Shipments?
For large-lightweight shipments, our shipment rates are calculated on the greater value between the shipment’s actual weight and the volumetric weight measures in kilograms.
To calculate the volumetric weight, simply multiply the WIDTH by the LENGTH by the HEIGHT of your shipment (in metres) by 333.
Our volumetric (or cubic) conversion factor is 333 kilograms per cubic metre.
E.g., 0.9 * 0.6 * 0.5 * 333 = 89.91 kgs
What Are the Freight Assist Australia Core Values?
It’s no secret that we at FAA Group are always striving to achieve and deliver excellence in freight service management. From small beginnings as a family run business, the foundation of our business has continued to operate from the same core values as our first day in operation. It’s these family-oriented, customer-centric values, combined with the ambition for successful partnerships, that allows us to deliver on every customer promise.
