SNZ HB 77:2008
Guide for the packing and transport of dangerous goods in transport units
This Handbook deals with sending dangerous goods in transport units for carriage by land and sea throughout New Zealand. It concentrates on dangerous goods in packages, including small packages, dangerous goods in limited quantities, consumer commodities and intermediate bulk containers (IBCs). The Handbook was revised in 2008 to keep it aligned with changes made to NZS 5433:2007. Those changes were carried out to accommodate the revised Land Transport Rule, the UNRTDG latest update, a review in line with latest practices and technologies, and an update to the Classification section. Other information sources drawn on for the development of this Handbook have also been updated and that material has been addressed in the 2008 version.
