Road Transport of Hazardous Materials Across Mexico and North America
Road transport of dangerous goods in Mexico is governed by NOM-002-SCT/2011 and a network of related SCT regulations covering classification, placarding, driver certification, vehicle standards, and emergency response. Cross-border operations into the United States and Canada add DOT 49 CFR and TDG requirements to the compliance stack.

Every vehicle is equipped with the correct placards, spill containment equipment, fire suppression, and emergency response cards before a shipment moves. Our compliance team pre-screens every load against current regulations — no shortcuts.
