Question
I'm looking to set up a call with someone who has experience with HAZMAT products. I'm launching a new product which I want to sell through Amazon FBA. However, this products, a Survival Backpack, contains a crank radio which requires batteries, and stormproof matches.
I have SDS documentation for both of these.
Amazon has labeled the product has dangerous. I can either find a 3PL company that will be willing to ship these for me around the US, or I can remove the crank radio and the matches from the backpack and ship them from my house to customer through UPS or USPS, however, I'm not sure I will be allowed to do this. If I'm forced to go with this option, I believe I will have to get their permission to ship these. I will only use ground shipping.
Answer
I'd be glad to help you out with this. I'm a certified dangerous goods and hazardous materials shipper, and am very familiar with selling on Amazon. The majority of our products are considered dangerous goods as well, so I could help you with this.
