What should NOT be included in the cargo list for dangerous goods shipping?

In the context of shipping dangerous goods, it is crucial to accurately list all materials that could pose a risk to public safety or the environment. While corrosive materials, explosives, and household cleaners all fall under categories of dangerous goods that require specific handling, packaging, and regulatory compliance, perishable food items do not share this classification.

Perishable food items, although they may require special considerations for preservation during transit, such as temperature control, they are not classified as dangerous goods. Dangerous goods typically include items that can lead to hazards such as burns, explosions, or significant environmental impact if mishandled or improperly contained. Therefore, these items do not need to be included in the cargo list for dangerous goods shipping, aligning with the regulatory framework which focuses primarily on hazardous materials. This distinction is important for maintaining safety and compliance during the shipping process.
