How does hazmat class affect truckload planning?

Hazmat classification affects many of the requirements that follow a regulated shipment. Depending on the material, classification can influence authorized packaging, markings, labels, shipping paper information, placards, handling requirements, and other transportation conditions. Correct classification should be established before the carrier is asked to plan or accept the load.
