ADR / Dangerous Goods Transport

Dangerous goods transport is the field of international logistics that demands the greatest expertise and discipline. Chemicals, industrial raw materials and other products classified as dangerous goods pose serious risks to human health, the environment and business continuity if they are mishandled, improperly packaged or transported in breach of regulations. The carriage of hazardous cargo is therefore governed by strict rules under the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). ADR and dangerous goods transport is one of our core areas of expertise at RSS Transport; we combine the field experience we have gained in chemical and raw-material transport with a principle of full regulatory compliance to run a safe operating model. The drivers assigned to these operations hold the SRC5 professional competence certificate required for dangerous goods transport and keep their knowledge current through regular training. The vehicles used are prepared for each journey with equipment matched to the class and packing group of the substance being carried; everything ADR prescribes — fire extinguishers, personal protective equipment, warning signs and orange plates — is verified through pre-departure checklists. Before every shipment, the cargo's UN number, hazard class and packing group are verified, and the transport document, instructions in writing and safety data sheets are prepared in full. Stowage in line with segregation rules, and leak-tightness and securing checks, are carried out under the supervision of our operations team. Throughout the shipment, our vehicles are tracked via GPS-based 24/7 monitoring, and routes are planned with dangerous goods transit restrictions in mind. In our chemical and raw-material shipments from Türkiye to Europe, the Caucasus and the Middle East, our aim is for the entire process — from origin to destination — to be documentable, traceable and fully compliant with the regulations. In dangerous goods transport, safety is not a preference for us; it is the fundamental condition of the operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

ADR is the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road. It sets the rules for the road transport of all cargo in the dangerous goods classes — principally flammable, corrosive, toxic or environmentally hazardous substances. We can assess together whether your cargo falls within the scope of ADR.

Yes. The drivers assigned to ADR-regulated shipments hold the SRC5 professional competence certificate required for dangerous goods transport, and keep their knowledge current through regular training.

The substance's UN number, hazard class, packing group, quantity and safety data sheet (SDS) are the basic requirements. Based on this information, we determine the right vehicle and equipment and prepare the necessary transport documents together.

We provide ADR-compliant transport from Türkiye to countries on the Europe, Caucasus and Middle East corridors. Routes are planned around each country's dangerous goods transit restrictions; for details, call us at +90 538 606 6264.
