Abstract

Every day a dilemma appears in the transport of dangerous goods: whether particular cargo should be transported by ADR rules or in accordance with the exceptions of ADR. The dilemma is reduced to economic justification of packing cargo in approved type packaging or in the auxiliary packaging. For a sender it is preferable to pack dangerous materials in handy packaging, but in accordance with the provisions that allow us to pack in limited quantities. Dangerous materials packed in limited quantities are not subject to the provisions of ADR, except in some cases. For each UN number it is stipulated which amount an individual package shall not exceed so that the package would be marked as limited quantity and therefore acquitted of the provisions of ADR. This paper discusses the topic whether this packed cargo meets all requirements for safe transport, both for humans and the environment and whether possible savings in transport performed in that way are profitable.
