Gefahrgut 4 weclapp

Shipping Limited Quantities (LQ) from weclapp

LQ flag on the item, quantity check with density factor, 30 kg per package, no transport document.

Many shops ship dangerous goods in limited quantities: cleaning agents, paints, cosmetics. Fulfillment 4 weclapp decides per package whether the shipment may go as Limited Quantities and declares it correctly to the carrier. The duty to inform the carrier (ADR 3.4.12) and the LQ marking on the package remain with you.

How the app decides on LQ

LQ line items count as zero in the points total under the 1,000-point rule.

Marking on the item

LQ only applies if all items with the same UN number in the package carry the LQ marking.

Quantity limits

The app checks the quantity per inner packaging against reference values per class and packing group. Column 7a of the ADR table for your UN number remains authoritative.

Density factor

The app converts limits in liters into kilograms via the density. An example follows directly below.

Package limit

At most 30 kg per package.

Excluded

Classes 1 and 7 never ship as LQ.

Example: cleaning agent

Class 8, packing group II, 1.03 kg per bottle, density 1.03 g/ml.

Without density factor

The 1.03 kg bottle fails the 1 kg limit and does not ship as LQ.

With density factor 1.03 g/ml

The 1 liter limit equals 1.03 kg. The bottle may ship as LQ.
