What Makes Hazmat Transport Different?
Hazmat transportation is governed by strict rules outlined by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), including vehicle signage, driver certifications, and handling protocols. Not every transport company is qualified to move these materials, but Xtreme Tow is.
We’re trained to transport materials under the nine primary DOT hazmat classes:
- Explosives
- Gases (flammable, non-flammable, and toxic)
- Flammable liquids
- Flammable solids
- Oxidizing substances
- Toxic & infectious substances
- Radioactive materials
- Corrosives
- Miscellaneous dangerous goods
Whether it’s a single drum or a full load, we ensure full compliance at every stage of the journey.
