Dry ice shipments

The Dangerous Goods/Hazardous Materials shipping coordinators at the Office of Research Assurances would like to remind WSU shippers that we recommend 5-10 lbs. of dry ice for every day that your shipment will be in transport.

Recent shipments have been delayed at the hubs of UPS and FedEx due to weather, mechanical failure, and other unforeseen events. These delays have caused precious samples and experiment data to be lost due to the insufficient quantities of dry ice.

When a shipment is delayed due to unforeseen circumstances there is nothing WSU can do. So please remember if your shipment contains important samples or data, add additional dry ice for those unforeseen events. Please contact the Dangerous Goods/Hazardous Material shippers at (509) 432-3869 if you have any questions.
