In order to ensure full compliance with hazardous materials transportation laws, Jetco Delivery requires that one of our hazardous materials specialists review all Hazmat paperwork before a truck is dispatched.
This new procedure will ensure 100-percent compliance with all applicable laws and will prevent unforeseen delays that can lead to frustration for our customers. In recent months, Jetco drivers have arrived at a shipping point only to be given a load without the proper paperwork. The result is that time-sensitive loads are delayed while the proper paperwork is procured.
Jetco Delivery is committed to safety in all aspects of our operations and won’t cut corners to deliver shipments that are in violation of the law.The safety of our customers, our drivers and the general public are of utmost importance to our entire team here at Jetco. We’re ready to help you with your shipping needs and assist you in identifying the documents required to move hazardous materials. Learn how to properly complete a shipping form.
As soon as your paperwork is complete and ready for review, please fax it to (713) 675-5000 or e-mail to customerservice@jetcodelivery.com. If you have any questions regarding the proper transport of hazardous materials, please call or e-mail Jeff McKinney or David Roley. Jeff can be reached at (713) 678-6431 or via e-mail at jmckinney@jetcodelivery.com. David can be reach by phone at (713) 678-6411 or via e-mail at davidr@jetcodelivery.com.

Jetco requires compliance review for all hazardous materials
Services > Hazardous Materials
The shipping of hazardous materials continues to be an issue that presents a variety of challenges for clients no matter what the industry.
That’s why our team of drivers at Jetco Delivery receive continuous training on the latest regulations related to the shipping and transport of hazardous cargo. One of the primary concerns faced by companies that ship hazardous material is providing the proper documentation to accompany the shipment.
Jeff McKinney, Jetco’s safety director, said that under federal law, hazardous materials are any shipments that “pose an unreasonable risk to the public’s health, safety and property when transported in commerce.” McKinney said that it is the shipper’s responsibility to complete the proper documentation when sending hazardous materials.
What about importing containers of HAZMAT?
The same rules and regulations apply to importing hazardous materials as apply to all other loads. Several customers have pointed out that they have a difficult time obtaining the written shippers’ certification from overseas (see checklist). It is essential that our customers obtain this information from their shippers - whether domestic or overseas. Under the law, Jetco cannot transport any Hazmat loads which do not meet the paperwork requirements on the Hazmat checklist outlined on Page 2. This includes import Hazmat loads.
