HOW IT WORKS:

Once the shipping papers have been prepared using the ChemTel emergency response phone number, you simply e-mail or fax us the manifest, air bill, if applicable, and MSDS's or hazardous waste profiles for that shipment just prior to the actual shipping time. The information on each shipment is electronically stored in our Email/Fax-When-Shipped database under your company or organization name. In the event of an incident or governmental agency spot check, our Emergency Response Specialists can access the information with a few key strokes and provide all necessary information on that shipment to the caller, be they a DOT, Railway, FAA or Port inspectors or someone responding to an accident involving your shipment. Our Responders will document all incident details and prepare an incident report, which is forwarded to the listed contact person within your company via facsimile or e-mail.  Additionally, telephonic notification is provided to your companies appointed emergency contact if so desired.

Our service eliminates the need to keep your key personnel on 24-hour standby. Critical shipments will not be delayed or bumped back because your 24-hour number did not pass a spot check. This service has proved to be invaluable to our clients as it saves them money, time, assures compliance, limits liability risk, eliminates hassle and gives true peace of mind because they know when government officials, airline employees or any other person calls the emergency response phone number, a professional emergency responder will take the call 24 hours a day, 365 per year!
