Can Aloha Freight handle Hazardous Material shipments?
Yes, Aloha is trained and licensed to handle and ship Hazardous Material shipments as defined by the DOT. Aloha is not licensed to handle some explosives or radioactive cargo. Hazardous shipments by ocean to Hawaii are domestic shipments and are primarily governed by the regulations in CFR49. Please note that all flammable (class 3) and combustible shipments must state the flash point with the proper shipping description on the paperwork. This is also true if the subsidiary class is flammable. All hazardous material shipments are subject to an additional handling charge.
