Is Dry Ice in your package?

If you are shipping perishable goods, such as food items or medicines, you may be including dry ice in your package to keep the contents cool.

That’s why it’s important to follow PHMSA’s guidelines on hazardous materials packaging to ensure your package gets shipped safely and without delay!
