Just a quick question did you just bolt it on through the back or is it supported?
I've just bought one for a new trailer and wonder how to attach it either with a frame of just bolt it to the chassis
word of warning on these - I got a ACCS none conformance years ago because of a chemical locker
they need to be bunded, signed and locked just like a normal them store
also you need to carry product data sheets when on the road in case of accident

What just like delivery vans with hundreds of litres of chems in them never seen one with a sign let alone a bund
they have to comply with ADR regs
Well they must be very slack. Last load that came here was on a pallet not held down and no bund at all
their choice but breaking rules like that might seem like a great idea until they are involved in a RTA
fine, until they are involved in an accident I guess, wouldn't want to be driver of company owner at that point !

There are exemptions depending on the quantities and types of chemicals, primary and secondary packing sizes. There are also exemptions for chemicals already within a machine, and carriage of chemicals where the carriage is ancillary to the main activity and the chemicals are to be used on arrival. The fact is that ADR/CDC is a wonderfully over-complicated piece of Whitehall/Euro regulations that muddies the waters enough to keep an army of consultants in work!
Of course and not heard of a problem, but as you found with your mice crap we have to prove we are doing the job right, these delivery vehicles cant be being checked
if there was an accident that involved one they would be checked and the consequence for driver or company owner would not be pleasant if anyone was hurt or anything got polluted etc
Isn't that the modern way - there aren't many checks by Elf and Safety, and they let you go your own way most of the time, but if you make a bad mistake they throw the book at you.
