LIVING THE DREAM stated "2. "This Side Up" stickers. Dear God, if you only knew. The only time this sticker does anything is when the package is finally placed on your porch. Trust me, it has pointed in every other direction along the way. Don't send anything that has to stay in one position - it won't."
Very true, in feeders, hazmat materials have to be in the back of the trailer, with the accompanying paperwork on the side (yeah, right!). I always find hazmat liquid packages upside down with the arrow pointing down . It would probably take a bump or two on the highway to pop the lid when the contents and gravity are pushing it away from the container. I don't wait for that to happen I always upright them and try to brace them with other packages so that I don't have a hazmat leak. Remember feeder drivers, you're the one that is going to have to deal with a hazmat leak on the road, not the loaders. I would rather deal with turning them over now than explaining to a state trooper what the story is with the liquid coming out of the trailer
