Demystify:
Hi Marjorie - When we moved ~ 12 years ago, we were required to hire
a company to pack ours for DOT regulations since they were crossing
the road - at least this was what we were told. �

I have a related question to the chemical transport
question. A new science building at a rural college in
California is now being finished, so they will have to pack and
transport all of the chemicals from the old building to the new
building. These would be chemicals that are typical for general
first-year inorganic chemistry. Are the faculty and lab tech
allowed to do the packing and moving of chemicals themselves or
are they required to hire outside specialists? Are there any
rules or prudent guidelines to follow in moving and supervising
the move?
