I think Mr Grainger might have something to say about this one!
It is worth bearing in mind that if you are sending or receiving fireworks of any quantity you really should check with a qualified Dangerous Goods Safety Adviser exactly what the requirements are for that transport move.
Fleet Risk Consultants will not charge to advise you whether you fall within the rules of ADR.
They can also help you complete the paperwork and the legally required audits and reports.
