and in condition for shipment as required or authorized by applicable requirements of Chapter 1,

Subchapter C, or an exemption, approval or registration issued under Subchapter A or Subchapter C (Title

49, CFR §171.2).

No person may transport a hazardous material in commerce unless that person is registered in conformance

with Title 49, CFR, Chapter I, Subpart G of part 107, if applicable. The hazardous material must be

Supplier’s resulting invoice must reflect the same packing list quantities and items or payment may be

delayed.

On a palletized load as part of a full truckload, place the packing list in an envelope marked “Packing list

Enclosed” and place it on the last pallet loaded.

On a carton only shipment, number the cartons and place the packing list on the outside of carton number

one.

In addition to the outside packing list, all shipments must contain a packing list inside the carton that has

the “Packing List Enclosed” envelope affixed to the outside. This ensures a packing list can be used to

receive the material if the outside packing list envelope has been torn from the carton during transportation.

The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) must be attached to this copy also.

When shipping one or more cartons to the same Verizon address, on the same day, via the same carrier

from the same origin, the carton(s) must be strapped or shrink wrapped to a pallet, and shipped as a unit.
