What’s considered hazardous?

 

Hazardous materials come in a wide variety of forms and can be chemical, biological, radioactive, or a combination.

 

The Postal Service's™ definition of a hazardous material includes many common household and consumer products. They may not be dangerous on your shelf at home, but they can become a hazard when shaken or when the temperature or pressure changes.

 

Some items USPS regulations restrict or consider hazardous include:

  • Aerosols
  • Airbags
  • Bleach
  • Cleaning supplies
  • Dry ice
  • Fireworks
  • Flea collars or flea sprays
  • Fuels or gasoline
  • Glues
  • Items previously containing fuel
  • Matches
  • Mercury thermometers
  • Nail polish
  • Paints
  • Perfumes
  • Pool chemicals

 

[INCLUDE ILLUSTRATION]

 

Other items, such as alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, liquor), aren’t considered hazardous, but are prohibited. Boxes with labels or logos for those products can’t be mailed either.

 

If you’re not sure whether a material is hazardous or prohibited, please contact 1-800-ASK-USPS or your local Post Office™.
