Carriage of Dangerous Goods Coaching and Services

If you transport products with hazard labels as part of your work, you may need some level of Dangerous Goods awareness whether that’s basic self‑certified training for Limited Quantities (LQ) or Excepted Quantities (EQ), or professional guidance from a DGSA if you’re operating above those thresholds but still below full ADR requirements.

I help sole traders and small businesses understand exactly what applies to their work. Through tailored coaching, we look at what you carry, how you transport it, and whether you legally require a DGSA. And if you do, I can provide that service too giving you clear, practical support from awareness through to full compliance.

1-to-1 Carriage of Dangerous Goods Coaching

If you transport products with hazard labels as part of your work, you may not need a full Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor but you do need to understand what you’re carrying and whether it falls within Limited Quantities (LQ) or Excepted Quantities (EQ).

I coach you through identifying the products you transport, understanding how they’re classified, and knowing whether they fall within LQ or EQ thresholds. I also guide you in researching and completing your own self‑certified awareness documentation, giving you the evidence you need if an incident were ever to happen during transit.

It’s practical, tailored support that helps you stay compliant without unnecessary cost or complexity.

Your Free 30‑Minute Snapshot Session

Before we start any Dangerous Goods coaching, you’ll begin with a free 30‑minute Snapshot Session. This is a relaxed, practical conversation where we look at the products you transport, the hazard labels involved, and what you’re already doing to stay safe and compliant. We’ll work through as much of the DG Snapshot Questionnaire as time allows, giving you a clearer picture of whether your loads fall within Limited Quantities (LQ), Excepted Quantities (EQ), or if you may be approaching thresholds where additional requirements apply.

This session isn’t a full audit it’s your chance to get clarity, ask questions, and see how my coaching can give you structure, confidence, and peace of mind. It also helps me understand your business so any ongoing support is tailored, focused, and genuinely useful, whether that’s DG awareness coaching or determining if you legally require a DGSA.

Dangerous Goods Safety Adviser

If during your free 30‑minute Dangerous Goods Snapshot Session or through your own checks it becomes clear that your business needs a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor, I can provide that service too. Whether your transport falls under the UK Carriage of Dangerous Goods Regulations (CDGR) or full ADR requirements, I offer tailored DGSA support that fits the way your business actually operates.

As your DGSA, I help you stay compliant, keep your documentation in order, and give you clear, practical guidance so you can transport dangerous goods confidently and legally. You get ongoing support that’s structured, straightforward, and designed for busy sole traders and small businesses who need clarity without the overwhelm.

Your Free 30‑Minute Snapshot Session

Before we begin any Dangerous Goods support, you’ll start with a free 30‑minute Snapshot Session. This relaxed, practical conversation helps us look at the products you transport, the hazard labels involved, and how your business currently handles DG movements. We’ll work through as much of the DG Snapshot Questionnaire as time allows, giving you early clarity on whether your loads fall within LQ/EQ or if you may be operating at a level where a DGSA is required under CDGR or ADR.

This isn’t a full audit it’s your chance to get straightforward guidance, ask questions, and understand whether you’re likely to need a DGSA. It also helps me see how your business operates so any ongoing support, whether coaching or full DGSA services, is tailored, focused, and genuinely useful for you.

DGSA Costs are Tailored to Your Business

DGSA support isn’t a one‑size‑fits‑all service, because every business handles dangerous goods differently. Your cost is tailored to the size of your operation, how often you transport dangerous goods, and the types of products you move. A small sole trader sending occasional ADR required loads will need a very different level of support compared to a business transporting regular mixed‑class consignments.

During your free 30‑minute Dangerous Goods Snapshot Session, we’ll look at your transport patterns, the hazard labels involved, and whether your activities fall under CDGR alone or full ADR. From there, I can give you a clear, fair price based on what your business genuinely needs nothing more, nothing less.

This approach keeps DGSA support affordable for start‑ups and small operators, while ensuring larger or more complex businesses get the structured compliance oversight required to stay safe and legally protected.
